Opinion

February 14, 1994

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Ruskin, J.).


Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The Supreme Court properly exercised its discretion in denying the defendants' motion to vacate a default judgment which had been entered against them. The defendants did not offer a reasonable excuse for their default or demonstrate the existence of a meritorious defense (see, Fidelity Deposit Co. v. Andersen Co., 60 N.Y.2d 693; Pagones v. Maddox, 199 A.D.2d 483; Matter of Astuto v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 198 A.D.2d 503; IBM Corp. v. Camp, Dresser McKee, 194 A.D.2d 645; Matter of United States Auto. Assn. v. Steiger, 191 A.D.2d 496). Thompson, J.P., O'Brien, Joy and Altman, JJ., concur.
