Latest version.
  • 1.    After  its  determination of an appeal taken pursuant to article
      four hundred fifty, an appellate court, in the interest of  justice  and
      for  good  cause  shown,  may  in its discretion, upon motion of a party
      adversely affected by its determination, or upon its own motion, order a
      reargument or reconsideration of the appeal.   Upon such  an  order  the
      court  may either direct further oral argument by the parties or confine
      its reconsideration to re-examination of the issues as previously argued
      or submitted upon the appeal proper.   Upon  ordering  a  reargument  or
      reconsideration  of an appeal, the court must again determine the appeal
      pursuant to the provisions of this article.
        2.  The court of appeals may promulgate rules limiting the time within
      which a motion for reargument of appeals determined by such court may be
      made, and the  appellate  division  of  each  department  may  similarly
      promulgate  such  rules  with  respect  to  appeals  determined  by such
      appellate division and appeals  determined  by  the  other  intermediate
      appellate  courts located within such department.  In the absence of any
      such rule of limitation, a motion for reargument  may  be  made  at  any
      time.
