Full title: ANNETTE BAMBINO, Respondent, v. THOMAS BAMBINO, Appellant

Court: Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department

Date published: May 10, 1999

261 A.D.2d 426 (N.Y. App. Div. 1999)

687 N.Y.S.2d 294

Opinion

May 10, 1999

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Trainor, R.).

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

The appellant did not demonstrate a reasonable excuse for his default and a meritorious defense. Accordingly, the Supreme Court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in denying his motion to vacate his default ( see, Sayagh v. Sayagh, 205 A.D.2d 678; Arvanetes v. Arvanetes, 191 A.D.2d 893).

The appellant's remaining contention is without merit.

S. Miller, J. P., Sullivan, Friedmann and Luciano, JJ., concur.
