SLIRLJ 3.2(b)
                  MOTION FOR VACATION OF DEFAULT JUDGMENT FOR FTA


    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 said judgment be set aside. The motion
will then be presented to the court ex parte for determination.  If, upon
review, the court finds 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.
