A motion for leave to renew.

Pursuant to CPLR 2221[e][2], the motion "shall be based upon new facts not offered on the prior motion that would change the prior determination." Pursuant to 2221[e][3], the motion "shall contain reasonable justification for the failure to present such facts on the prior motion." Renewal is not a second chance that is freely given to a party who have not exercised due diligence in making its first factual presentation.
