Issuance of Order Confirming Disclosure and Notice Obligations
In all criminal actions on an indictment, prosecutor's information, information, or simplified information the court shall issue an order to prosecution and defense counsel that, inter alia, (1) confirms the prosecutor=s disclosure obligations pursuant to Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963), Giglio v. United States, 405 U.S. 150 (1972), People v. Geaslen, 54 N.Y.2d 510 (1981), and their progeny; and (2) confirms defense counsel's professional obligation to provide effective assistance of counsel and meet defendant's statutory notice obligations. The order shall be issued on the first scheduled court date, following arraignment, where both the prosecutor and defense counsel are present. The Chief Administrator of the Courts shall promulgate a model for this purpose that the court may use as it deems appropriate.
A duplicate of the § 200.16 Brady/Giglio/Geaslen order rule, applied at the local-court level: the court issues the disclosure-and-notice-obligations order on the first scheduled court date after arraignment with both prosecutor and defense counsel present; the Chief Administrator provides a model.
