http://www.law.cornell.edu/ethics/ny/narr/NY_NARR_3.HTM Section 130-1.1(c) of the NYCRR defines "frivolous" conduct as conduct which is (1) "completely without merit in law or fact and cannot be supported by a reasonable argument for an extension, modification or reversal of existing law," or (2) "undertaken primarily to delay or prolong the resolution of the litigation, or to harass or to maliciously injure another." Section 130-1.1(a) grants the court the discretion to (1) award to a party costs and attorneys fees resulting from frivolous conduct by another party, and (2) impose financial sanctions on the party or attorney who engages in frivolous conduct. The total amount of costs awarded and sanctions imposed cannot exceed $10,000 "for any single occurrence of frivolous conduct." See � 130-1.2.
