District Court of Appeal of Florida April 25, 1990, No. 89-00713 (Anderson v. Carlozzi)

DANAHY, Acting Chief Judge.

The appellant, the defendant in the trial court, appeals an order denying a motion to vacate an order of default. We reverse because Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.500(c) specifically provides that if a party fails to plead or otherwise defend, the trial court may enter a default against such party.
