In Maggiore v. Maggiore, 49 AD2d 1021, the Fourth Department stated that the practice of referring motions affecting an order or judgment made by another justice of the court "accords with the aim of sparing the time and effort of the second Justice to familiarize himself with a matter already familiar to a colleague. Deviating from this practice is wasteful of judicial time and, if countenanced, would cause confusion and vexatious litigation contraproductive to the orderly administration of justice" (id. ).
