N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. tit. 22 § 670.15
A maximum of 15 minutes shall be allowed for argument to each attorney who has filed a brief, except as set forth in subdivision (b) of this section.
Argument is not permitted on issues involving maintenance; spousal support; child support; counsel fees; the legality, propriety or excessiveness of sentences; determinations made pursuant to the sex offender registration act; grand jury reports; and calendar and practice matters including but not limited to preferences, bills of particulars, correction of pleadings, examinations before trial, physical examinations, discovery of records, interrogatories, change of venue, and transfers of actions to and from the Supreme Court.
Not more than one attorney shall be heard for each brief filed unless, upon application made in writing at least seven days before the matter appears on the court's calendar, the court shall have granted permission to allow more than one attorney to argue.
After filing a brief and until a matter has been placed on the court's calendar, counsel shall advise the court, in writing and on a continuing basis, of commitments that will interfere with counsel's ability to appear on a particular date. Requests for leave to adjourn oral argument of an appeal or proceeding which appears on the court's calendar are strongly disfavored. Such requests may be granted only where unusual circumstances are present, as explained in a writing in which counsel indicates why he or she cannot appear for oral argument, why no other attorney can appear in his or her place, and why oral argument is necessary. Requests for leave to adjourn oral argument of an appeal or proceeding are within the discretion of the court.
A party who originally elected to argue may notify the clerk of the intention to submit the cause without argument and need not appear at the call of the calendar.
Rebuttal argument shall not be permitted, except with leave of the court given at the time of argument.
After a cause has been placed on the calendar and prior to argument or submission of that cause, any party who previously submitted a brief may inform the court by letter, a copy of which is contemporaneously provided to the other parties to the appeal, of the citation to any decisions, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, or other similar matter not previously cited in that party's brief which arose subsequent to the filing thereof, without additional argument. Except for good cause shown, the court will not accept precedent at the call of the calendar where a copy thereof has not previously been given to the other parties.
