WIDENER, Circuit Judge:
This case is before us on the appeal of Square Construction Company and La Fera Contracting Company (Square/La Fera) from the order of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia denying Square/La Fera’s motion pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 60(b)(2) and (3) to vacate its judgment previously entered in favor of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA or the Authority). We hold that the district court’s denial of that motion was an abuse of discretion, and remand the case for further proceedings with instructions.
