Order To Show Cause For Infant (Incompetent Person) Compromise

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE FOR INFANT [INCOMPETENT PERSON] COMPROMISE. This is a New York Supreme Court form (Westchester County, Hon. Lewis J. Lubell, J.S.C.) used to approve settlements involving a minor or legally incompetent person under CPLR 1207–1209 and 1208. It directs defendants, insurers, and agencies (such as Medicaid and DSS) to show cause why the proposed settlement should not be approved. Attached forms include a Medicaid/Public Assistance Lien Search, NYC HRA Final Lien Request, and an Infant Compromise Checklist, which details required affidavits, attorney affirmations, medical proof, and lien clearance. The order ensures the settlement is fair, liens are satisfied, and funds are properly safeguarded, often through a trust or restricted account. www.FormsWorkflow.com
