Order To Show Cause CPL 245.70(6) Review

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE CPL 245.70(6) REVIEW. This form from the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Appellate Division: First Judicial Department, is used in connection with a request for review under Criminal Procedure Law (CPL) § 245.70(6). It is filed when a party (usually the prosecution or defense) seeks appellate review of a trial court’s ruling regarding discovery disputes—such as whether certain materials must be disclosed in a criminal case. The form begins with a summary of the documents attached in support of the application, including the trial court’s order, supporting and opposing briefs, hearing transcripts if any, and an affirmation of good faith as required by law. The form directs the opposing party to “show cause” before the appellate court on a set date as to why the relief requested—such as vacating or modifying the lower court’s ruling—should not be granted. It outlines service instructions, deadlines for submitting opposing papers, and includes a clause allowing the court to waive service under limited circumstances if good cause is shown. www.FormsWorkflow.com
