Carol Hulse, Appellant, v Patrick Molt, Respondent.

[639 NYS2d 939]

The Supreme Court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in permitting the defendant to file a late answer. The delay on the part of the defendant was brief and the excuse for the delay was reasonable (see, CPLR 3012 [d]). Miller, J. P., Joy, Hart and Krausman, JJ., concur.
