12. How do I start an Article 78 proceeding?

Submit your Verified Petition, Affirmation in Support, Exhibits, Request for Judicial Intervention (RJI) and one of following documents to the County Clerk, Room 118 with the relevant fees ($210 - Index Number/$95 - RJI fee):
Notice of Petition -or- Order to Show Cause. *If moving by Order to Show Cause and seeking a Temporary Protective Order (TRO) (asking the Court to stop something while the case is pending), you must also submit an Affirmation of Notification. If you are not seeking a TRO, but want to move by OSC, cross out any reference to the TRO on the form and you do not need to submit the affirmation of notification.
