Description
Opinion by JUDGE PIERCE A default judgment was entered against the defendant D & K Rental, Inc., a corporation. D & K then filed a motion to set aside the judgment under C.R.C.P. 60(b). From a denial of that motion D & K appeals. We reverse. D & K, among other defendants, was sued in a contract action. Within the time for filing an appropriate answer, one of the officers of the corporation attempted to file documents with the court. The trial court refused to accept the documents from this officer and informed him that a corporation could only appear through legal counsel. The court then granted the corporate officer 15 days within which to obtain legal counsel and file an appropriate response to the complaint. After the period granted by the court had expired, plaintiffs filed a motion for default judgment and the court granted judgment. No three-day notice under C.R.C.P. 55(b)(2) was given to D & K prior to the entry of default judgment.
