This notice of entry is a standard form that attorneys can use to formally alert all parties in a civil action in New York Supreme Court that the court entered an order or judgment in that action. It includes practical guidance, drafting notes, and an alternate clause. New York law does not require parties to serve a notice of entry of an order or judgment. However, service of a notice of entry triggers the losing party's time to: • Appeal the order or judgment (see N.Y. C.P.L.R. 5513) –or– • Move for leave to reargue (see N.Y. C.P.L.R. 2221(d)(3)) Accordingly, the time to appeal or move for leave to reargue does not begin to run until notice of entry is served. If your client is the prevailing party, you should immediately serve a notice of entry on all parties to start the clock running for taking an appeal or moving for leave to reargue. See N.Y. C.P.L.R. 2221(d)(3); N.Y. C.P.L.R. 5513.
