Opinion
March 24, 1994
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Beatrice Shainswit, J.).
We agree with the IAS Court that defendant failed to establish either a reasonable excuse for the default or a meritorious defense. Defendant's belated claim of invalid service is contradicted by the record. We have considered defendant's other contentions and find them all to be without merit.
