It is signed by the managing attorney, who is certifying that the filing agent is authorized to file legal documents on behalf of the attorney. It states the name of the filing agent, the name of the attorney, the attorney's New York State Bar Association number, and the name of the court or courts in which the filing agent is authorized to file documents.
