§ 240.80  Discovery; when demand, refusal and compliance made.    1.    A  demand  to  produce  shall  be  made within thirty days after  arraignment and before the commencement of trial.  If the  defendant  is  not  represented  by counsel, and has requested an adjournment to obtain  counsel or  to  have  counsel  assigned,  the  thirty-day  period  shall  commence, for purposes of a demand by the defendant, on the date counsel  initially  appears  on  his  behalf.    However,  the  court  may direct  compliance with a demand to produce that, for good  cause  shown,  could  not have been made within the time specified.    2.   A refusal to comply with a demand to produce shall be made within  fifteen days of the service of the demand to produce, but for good cause  may be made thereafter.    3.  Absent a refusal to comply with a demand  to  produce,  compliance  with such demand shall be made within fifteen days of the service of the  demand or as soon thereafter as practicable.
