Supreme Court erred in granting defendants' cross motion to compel plaintiff to submit to a further deposition. Defendants' failure to comply with 22 NYCRR 202.7 (a) requires denial of the cross motion ( see, Barnes v. NYNEX, Inc., 274 A.D.2d 368; Sixty-Six Crosby Assocs. v. Berger Kramer, 256 A.D.2d 26; Vasquez v. G.A.P.L.W. Realty, 236 A.D.2d 311, 312; Romero v. Korn, 236 A.D.2d 598; Koelbl v. Harvey, 176 A.D.2d 1040).
