CPLR 2004 provides that a court "may extend the time fixed by any statute . . . for doing any act, . . . upon good cause shown," "[e]xcept where otherwise expressly prescribed by law." CPLR 3218 does not expressly prescribe that the time to file a defendant's affidavit confessing judgment may not be extended. So, upon finding that good cause was shown, the motion court properly granted plaintiff's motion for an extension of time to file defendants' confession of judgment.
