Description
The trial court entered a default judgment in favor of Houman Moghaddam when Kevin Bone and Morgan Bone (the Bones) failed to answer the complaint. The default was later set aside based on the Bones unopposed claim of extrinsic fraud/mistake. Subsequently, Moghaddam moved the court to abandon its decision to vacate the default judgment. The trial court revisited the motion to set aside and reaffirmed its previous ruling. Moghaddam challenges: (1) the validity of the courts original decision to vacate the default judgment, claiming the Bones failed to give him proper notice; and (2) the courts reaffirmation of the set aside order, on the ground the trial court improperly placed the burden of proof on him rather than on the Bones. We conclude his arguments as to both rulings have merit and, therefore, we reverse both orders and remand the matter. The motion to dismiss the appeal and for sanctions is denied.
