The New York Affidavit of Appearance & Adoption of Oral Stipulation is a legal form used in the state of New York. It is used when two parties have agreed to enter into a binding agreement, and wish to have the agreement officially recognized and enforced. The affidavit is used when the parties agree to a specific course of action, but do not wish to enter into a formal contract. This is often seen in family law proceedings, such as adoption or name changes. In such cases, the parties will enter into an oral stipulation, which is then put into writing in the form of the affidavit. The affidavit is then signed by both parties and a notary public, and is filed with the court. There are two main types of New York Affidavit of Appearance & Adoption of Oral Stipulation: one for adoptions and one for name changes. In the case of adoptions, the affidavit contains information regarding the parties involved, the child being adopted, and the conditions of the adoption. In the case of name changes, the affidavit contains information regarding the parties involved, the name being changed, and the conditions of the change. In both cases, the affidavit is designed to provide evidence of the agreement between the parties, and to provide legal protection for all involved. As such, it is important to ensure that all the information in the affidavit is accurate and up to date.
