                            LIRLJ 3.2
        MOTION FOR VACATION OF DEFAULT JUDGMENT FOR FTA.


(b)  A defendant against whom a judgment for a traffic infraction
     has been entered by default for failure to appear, may file
     a motion in writing, on forms provided by the court,
     requesting that the judgment be set aside.  The motion will
     then be presented to the court ex parte for determination.
     If, upon review, the court feels that a hearing upon the
     motion is necessary, the matter shall be set for hearing.
     Defendant must be present in the event the matter is set for
     hearing.  The motion will be evaluated in conformity with
     CRLJ 60(b).  If the Court grants said motion, the matter
     will be set for a hearing of the kind requested by the
     defendant.  Mitigation hearings may be heard at the time of
     the motion if the calendar allows.
