NY CPLR § R3023 (2012) What's This?
 
    Rule  3023.  Construction  of  verified  pleading.  The allegations or
  denials in a verified pleading must, in form, be stated to  be  made  by
  the  party  pleading.  Unless  they  are  stated  to  be  made  upon the
  information and belief of the party,  they  must  be  regarded  for  all
  purposes, including a criminal prosecution, as having been made upon the
  knowledge  of  the person verifying the pleading. An allegation that the
  party has not sufficient knowledge or information to form a belief  with
  respect  to  a  matter,  must,  for the same purposes, be regarded as an
  allegation that the person verifying the pleading has not such knowledge
  or information.
