Opinion of the Court

Evans, P. J.

This is a motion to set aside a judgment rendered in the absence of the defendant and her attorney, and to reinstate the ease. The evidence before the judge was sufficient to support a finding that the defendant was lacking in diligence, and there was no abuse of discretion in refusing to vacate the judgment and reinstate the case.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices eoneur. DuPont Guerry and A. L. Dasher, for plaintiff in error. Hall & Hall, contra.
