An affidavit showing unusual or unanticipated circumstances justifying a departure from the general rule foreclosing discovery after the filing of a note of issue ( 22 NYCRR 202.21 [d]) was not required here since the relief sought was not in the nature of discovery ( cf., Hill v.

We have considered defendants' other contentions and find them to be without merit.
