The plaintiff brought a motion for judgment under Rule 49.09 after the defendant defaulted on a $90,000 settlement agreement.
The motion was initially adjourned by an Associate Justice for lack of jurisdiction and directed to proceed in writing before a judge.
The court found that the motion materials had not been properly served on the defendant, as no formal lawyer of record existed.
The motion was adjourned to allow the plaintiff to properly serve the defendant pursuant to Rule 16.01(4).
