Clarifies that pretrial motions in limine are not required in order for deposition testimony to be introduced at trial

This bill (A 8646) amends civil procedure rules to clarify that parties in civil cases no longer need to file a pretrial motion to get court permission before using deposition testimony at trial. It directly affects litigants (plaintiffs and defendants) and their attorneys in civil lawsuits. The key change adds a new rule stating that using deposition testimony under the existing rules does not require prior court approval through a pretrial motion. This simplifies the trial process by removing an administrative step for introducing recorded witness statements. The change applies immediately upon the bill's effective date.
