MEMORANDUM
LOUIS H. POLLAK, District Judge.
On July 14, 1983, plaintiff, AmQuip Corporation (“AmQuip”), confessed judgment against the Pearsons in this diversity action. The judgment covers two separate transactions in which the Pearsons allegedly acted as guarantors for their corporation, Kingsnorth Steel Erectors, Inc. (“Kingsnorth”). Kingsnorth is now the subject of bankruptcy proceedings in Maryland. The Pearsons have moved to “open or strike” AmQuip’s confessed judgment. The Pearsons have also made requests which appear to be requests for leave to file third-party complaints.
