Melillo v. Spiro

In this action for strict foreclosure, the named defendant has appealed from the trial court’s denial of his second “motion to reopen judg ment and extend law day.” By way of this motion, the named defendant sought to obtain a six month extension in the law day set for March 1, 1980.
