Miller v. Weber , 1996 S.D. LEXIS 50 ( 1996 )

SABERS, Justice,

dissenting.

[¶ 17] I dissent on Issue 1 because the actions of Major, in connection with the actions of Culbertson were sufficiently directed at South Dakota to support jurisdiction under SDCL 15-7-2(1), (2) and (14), and Opp v. Nieuwsma, 458 N.W.2d 352 (S.D.1990).

[¶ 18] I also dissent on Issue 2 because the motion for relief from the default judgments was not timely,⁷ the judgment was not void, and because Major ignored the pleadings on advice of counsel despite service on him as early as December 23,1989.

7 . As stated in the majority opinion, default judgments on liability and damages were entered against Major on March 19, 1990 and April 19, 1994 but he did move to set them aside until May 11, 1994.
