From: troy booth To: Halpern NYSD Chambers Subject: Fwd: Case#7:16cv 3477 Date: Sunday, March 20, 2022 11:51:43 AM Sent from my iPhone Begin forwarded message: From: troy booth Date: March 20, 2022 at 10:45:22 AM CDT To: AD2-ClerksOffice@nycourts.gov Subject: Case#7:16cv 3477 Good day I am a retired New York State correction sergeant I am being held accountable for $50,000. I feel like something unfair is going on with this case. April 24, 2018 the plaintiff had an error filing. January 10, 2020 my union went against a contract agreement and stop representing me. February 13 2020 I did not receive the documents they claim, April 3, 2020 I was representing myself with no knowledge ,May 11th 2020 I was living different address ,March 10, 2021They file papers to the wrong address ,August 4, 2021 the plaintiff remedies were exhausted according to the court papers ,10 /25/21 and 2/1022 The court received letters from me that was my way of answering this complaint to my knowledge forgive me for the long email I have submitted photos for court documents. Court construes Defendant Booth's March 20, 2022 e-mail as a motion to vacate the default judgment entered against □□□ compensatory damages in the amount of $50,000. Construing Defendant Booth's motion liberally, in light of his pro se tus, the Court finds that his motion is unsupported by fact and law. Indeed, Plaintiff's counsel served Defendant Booth with of all filings and orders relevant to the default proceedings against him. (Docs. 202-03, 213, 215-5 at 17, 218, 222). Booth does not claim, and provides no evidence, that he did not receive notice of the inquest hearing held on Marc 2022--he simply chose not to participate. Defendant Booth offers no reason, other than his pro se status, for his failure to in his defense and comply with this Court's orders. But this reason is insufficient to warrant vacatur, as a □□□□□□□□□□ se status does not prevent him or excuse him from participating in his defense. Therefore, to the extent Defendant Booth to vacate the default judgment entered against him, that motion is denied. See, e.g., First Palm Beach Int'l Bank v. de Descuento, S.A., No. 85-CV-03656, 1989 WL 38122, at *5 (S.D.N.Y. Apr. 7, 1989) (denying motion to vacate defau gment where defendant "received proper notice in this matter and failed to participate in its disposition"). will be docketed separately. counsel is directed to serve a copy of this order on Defendant Booth and file proof of service on the docket.
