How to File an Order to Show Cause in Kings County

While typically motions are just "put in service" because a judge must first sign an Order to Show Cause (OSC) before it can be served upon all parties, you may want to (or your partner may want you to) go and file Orders to Show Cause in person.  Here is how to file an OSC in Kings County.

• Go to the County Clerk's Office (room 189) and have your OSC reviewed (Window #5) and pay for it (Window #4).
• Go to the Ex Parte Clerk's Office (10th floor) and submit your OSC to be reviewed.  If the OSC is an Emergency OSC, you will likely wait until it is reviewed and signed by the judge.  Otherwise, you will be given a form to check for the signed & scanned order online.
