Another 30 Days in the Toll -- Executive Order No. 202.55 Continues COVID-19 Tolling of Procedural Time Limits Through September 4, 2020

I went to bed last night and woke up before 6:00 this morning hitting F5 on my browser and thinking that today would be the day.  The day New York's COVID-19 toll of procedural time limits "for the commencement, filing, or service of any legal action, notice, motion, or other process or proceeding, as prescribed by the procedural laws of the state, including but not limited to *** the civil practice law and rules, *** or by any other statute, local law, ordinance, order, rule, or regulation, or part thereof" would be over.  The day the title of this morning's blog post would start with "Plus 139".  

Someone at the Governor's office, however, was up early this morning, too, and at 6:11 AM posted Executive Order 202.55, which "continue[s] the directives, not superseded by a subsequent directive, made by Executive Order 202 and each successor Executive Order up to and including Executive Order 202.21, and Executive Order ... 202.28, ... 202.38, ... [and] 202.48 ... for another thirty days through September 4, 2020[.]"

If you missed my July 6, 2020 post on what Executive Orders 202.8, 202.14., 202.28 and 202.38 provided, click here.  If the COVID-19 toll is not continued again past September 4, 2020, the addend will be 169 --  169 days added to the expiration of the procedural time limit at issue, such as a statute of limitations or a contractual suit limitation.

Another 30 days in the toll.
