ORDERED that the orders are affirmed, with costs.

The Supreme Court properly set aside the stipulation vacating the defendants' default and denied their motion to dismiss the complaint. The defendants failed to answer the complaint within the time provided by the so-ordered stipulation vacating their earlier default (see, Republic Ins. Co. v. Northern Aire Dev., 88 A.D.2d 973).
