Defendant appealed decision of Appeals Panel sustaining a denial of a motion to vacate a default judgment. Defendant argued that his motion should have been granted because he mistakenly wrote down the wrong court date for his initial court hearing, and pursuant to Rhode Island Traffic Tribunal Rule of Procedure 20, a court “may . . . relieve a party . . . from a judgment or order” due, among other reasons, to “mistake” or “inadvertence.” The District Court held that the question of whether there was sufficient mistake or inadvertence present to merit the granting of a motion to vacate is a question of fact to be proven by evidence. The District Court held that the Appeals Panel’s decision to reaffirm the denial of Defendant’s motion was proper because Defendant failed to support his argument with any evidence beyond his statements on the record. Accordingly, the District Court affirmed the decision of the Appeals Panel.
