Correct Answer
B. The deposition is improper because Rule 3113 bars a deposition before an employee of a party's attorney.
Detailed Explanation
CPLR deposition disqualification is broader than Sunday rules. Rule 3113 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules permits depositions before an officer authorized to administer oaths, such as a notary, but not before an attorney for a party or an employee of that attorney. Unlike the separate Sunday rule in the booklet’s "Definitions and General Terms," this disqualification applies regardless of the day of the week.
