Opinion
February 16, 1928.
Appeal from the Municipal Court, Borough of The Bronx, Second District.
Hughes, Rounds, Schurman Dwight [ Thomas H. Pinney of counsel], for the appellant.
Joseph S. Israel, for the respondent.
That the clerk instead of the attorney for the prevailing party prepared the default judgment did not affect the validity of said judgment, and the court had no jurisdiction to open defendant's default and vacate the judgment after a lapse of more than one year from the date of entry thereof. ( Weiss v. Forty-second St., M. St. N. Ave. R. Co., 123 Misc. 387; Daskal Fishman v. Corsan Cracker Co., Inc., 219 A.D. 829.)
Order reversed, with ten dollars costs; motion denied and judgment reinstated.
BIJUR and DELEHANTY, JJ., concur.
The above-cited cases are inapplicable. The judgment in each case was prepared pursuant to the provisions of section 125 of the Municipal Court Code. The order appealed from should be affirmed on the opinion of the court below.
