Pursuant to the authority vested in me, and with the advice and consent of the Administrative Board of the Courts, I hereby amend the Uniform Civil Rules of the Supreme and County Courts by adding a new section 202.12-a(b)(3), relating to special calendars for certain residential foreclosure actions, effective immediately, to read as follows:

* * *

(b)(3) In such county or counties as the Chief Administrator shall direct, in the event that a plaintiff fails to file proof of service of the summons and complaint in a residential mortgage foreclosure action with the county clerk within one hundred twenty days after the commencement of the action, or fails to file the RJI at the time of the filing of proof of service, the county clerk shall provide the Chief Administrative Judge with the case name, index number, property address, and contact information of parties and counsel in the action. The Chief Administrator may take such further action as she deems fit with respect to such case or cases, including but not limited to (a) placing a case on a delinquency calendar; (b) providing case information to a housing counseling agency or agencies; and (c) ordering a status conference.
