Opinion
August 1, 1994
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Yachnin, J.).
Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs, and the appellants' time to comply with the plaintiffs' expert demands is extended until 20 days after service upon them of a copy of this decision and order, with notice of entry.
It is well settled that a trial court possesses broad discretion to control discovery proceedings, and that discovery rules are to be liberally construed to promote full disclosure (see, U.S. Ice Cream Corp. v. Carvel Corp., 190 A.D.2d 788). Under the facts of the instant matter, the Supreme Court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in requiring full disclosure by the parties (see, Dunsmore v. Paprin, 114 A.D.2d 836). Bracken, J.P., Miller, Copertino, Santucci and Altman, JJ., concur.
