N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. Tit. 22 § 208.34 - Absence or disqualification of assigned judge
(a) Whenever a judge is
temporarily absent from a multipart court, proceedings in progress or scheduled
for appearance in the part presided over by that judge shall be reassigned or
otherwise handled by the calendar judge, or the administrative judge if no
calendar part has been established. If the judge presiding is unavailable or
unable to act for more than two court days in succession, the administrative
judge having direct supervisory authority over the court shall make whatever
arrangements are necessary to accommodate the proceedings assigned to the
judge.
(b) If a
proceeding is assigned to a judge who is for any reason disqualified from
hearing it, the proceeding shall be reassigned to another judge who is not
disqualified, to be heard by the assigned judge as expeditiously as
possible.
(c) In an
emergency, when neither the calendar judge nor the administrative judge can be
contacted, any other judge of or assigned to the court may act in respect to
pending proceedings as may be appropriate.
