SECTION 3023
Construction of verified pleading
Civil Practice Law & Rules (CVP) CHAPTER 8, ARTICLE 30
Rule 3023. Construction of verified pleading. The allegations or
denials in a verified pleading must, in form, be stated to be made by
the party pleading. Unless they are stated to be made upon the
information and belief of the party, they must be regarded for all
purposes, including a criminal prosecution, as having been made upon the
knowledge of the person verifying the pleading. An allegation that the
party has not sufficient knowledge or information to form a belief with
respect to a matter, must, for the same purposes, be regarded as an
allegation that the person verifying the pleading has not such knowledge
or information.
