The Civil Practice Act’s section on depositions, states that a remote deposition is taken “at the place where the deponent is to answer questions.” This language is at the top of page 2, Section (b)(4) of the attached article.
Danny Gershwin's interpretation of this is that this would apply to the time zone as well – so the deposition takes place at the time and place where the witness is, regardless of where anyone else is.
