Opinion
September 30, 1997
Appeal from Order of Supreme Court, Erie County, Mintz, J.
Present — Denman, P.J., Hayes, Callahan, Doerr and Fallon, JJ.
Supreme Court did not abuse its discretion in denying plaintiffs' motion to restore the case to the trial calendar. Plaintiffs failed to provide a reasonable excuse for the delay and failed to establish merit to the action (see, Ronsco Constr. Co. v. 30 E. 85th St. Co., 219 A.D.2d 281, 283-284; Barton v. Jablon, 181 A.D.2d 755; Balducci v. Jason, 133 A.D.2d 436, 437).
