La Vin v. La Vin

Since respondent’s default was deliberate and intentional, and there was no adequate showing of a meritorious defense, it was an improvident exercise of discretion to grant the motion. (Colonial Fuel Corp. v. Kahn, 214 App. Div. 83; Booraem v. Gibbons, 263 App. Div. 665; Scordo v. Terrell, 275 App. Div. 940; Chaplin v. Selznick, 186 Misc. 66, 68-69.) Nolan, P. J., Carswell, Wenzel, MacCrate and Schmidt, JJ., concur. [See post, p. 1088; 280 App. Div. 895.]
