The appellants timely moved, inter alia, to strike the note of issue within 20 days of its service (see 22 NYCRR 202.21 [e]), and clearly demonstrated that the plaintiffs certificate of readiness contained misstatements concerning the status of discovery. Since the appellants made a clear showing that discovery was not complete and that the case was not ready for trial, the Supreme Court should have granted their motion to strike the note of issue and to compel the plaintiff to appear for a neurological examination (see 22 NYCRR 202.21 [e]; Brown v Astoria Fed. Sav., 51 AD3d 961 , 962 [2008]; Gregory v Ford Motor Credit Co., 298 AD2d 496 , 497 [2002]; Drapaniotis v 36-08
