Description
This is an appeal from an order denying a motion seeking relief from a default judgment pursuant to rule 1.540, Fla. R. Civ. P. Appellants contend that the court erred in failing to set aside the default judgment because (1) the plaintiff failed to serve the application for default upon defendants after defendants had served plaintiffs counsel with a paper, in violation of rule 1.500(b), Fla. R. Civ. P.; (2) the final judgment was entered upon proof of unliquidated damages without notifying defendants of a trial thereon, in violation of rule 1.500(e) and 1.440(c); and (3) the court abused its discretion in view of the showing in defendants motion of excusable neglect and meritorious defenses within the meaning of rules 1.500(d) and 1.540(b). We reverse upon the first two grounds and, therefore, do not consider the third.
