Brooklyn, NY asked in Family Law for New York

Q: I accidentally missed a pretrial hearing. A terrible mistake out of town for business, simply misread the date. Do I?

Despite court 12 months of overwhelming evidence that I’m fine (forced to prove myself with a false TOP), they suspended visitation of my son. (Very punitive and abusive) , also enter all discovery is collected- not for me, do I strike that NOI the plaintiff submitted?

A: This question asks for legal advice as to whether to "strike" a note of issue, a filing the signals the end of the discovery phase of an action and commences the trial pages.

We here cannot provide legal advice. We are an information service that educates the public about the law and its operation. We can recommend to askers that they should retain legal counsel on their civil law cases, and that is what we recommend here and now.

We have no idea about the conduct of this asker's action. We have not reviewed the court file and we therefore cannot opine as to what should be this asker's next steps. Only retained and prepared counsel can do that.
