OPINION OF THE COURT

Friedmann, J.

On this appeal we are asked to determine whether the quantity and character of discovery permitted in a proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 to review the equalization rates imposed on a municipality by the State differ from the discovery allowed in a tax certiorari proceeding pursuant to RPTL article 7. We conclude that the standards for discovery in a CPLR article 78 proceeding commenced pursuant to RPTL 1218 to review municipal equalization rates are broader than those permitted in RPTL article 7 tax certiorari challenges to real property assessments.
