The plaintiffs moved to set aside a registrar's order dismissing their motor vehicle accident action for delay under Rule 48.14.
The court applied the Reid factors, finding the plaintiffs provided a satisfactory explanation for the delay, which was caused by medical issues and production difficulties rather than inadvertence.
The plaintiffs moved promptly to set aside the order, and the defendants failed to demonstrate significant prejudice.
The motion was granted, the action was reinstated, and a new timetable was imposed.
