The plaintiff electrical subcontractor moved for default judgment against the defendant general contractors in a construction lien action.
The homeowner defendants, who had also been noted in default, appeared and requested that the noting of default against them be set aside, arguing they had disputed liability early on but were ignored.
The court declined to grant default judgment against the general contractors immediately, as doing so would prejudice the homeowners' ability to dispute the quantum.
The motion was adjourned to allow the homeowners to bring a formal motion to set aside the noting of default.
