  an accompanying signed statement, he shall set forth in detail  all  the
  facts  with  respect  to  such prior application and its disposition. If
  such prior application had been filed in any appellate division of  this

  the written consent of said appellate division to  the  renewal  of  his
  application  in  that  appellate  division  or  in  any  other appellate
  division.
