Ordered that the order is reversed, on the law, with costs, the motion of the defendant Kimberly Jones, also known as "Lil Kim," to vacate the order entered July 29, 2005 is denied, and the order entered July 29, 2005 is reinstated.
To vacate her default, the defendant Kimberly Jones, also known as "Lil Kim," was required to demonstrate a reasonable excuse for not opposing the plaintiff's motion and a meritorious defense to the motion ( see CPLR 5015 [a] [1]; Piton v Cribb, 38 AD3d 741, 742; Yurteri v Artukmac, 28 AD3d 545, 546). Jones failed to present a reasonable excuse. Where, as here, there is a pattern of default and neglect, the attorney's negligence can properly be imputed to the client ( see Dave Sandel, Inc. v Specialized Indus. Servs. Corp., 35 AD3d 790, 791; Edwards v Feliz, 28 AD3d 512, 513; MRI Enters. v Amanat, 263 AD2d 530, 531). Accordingly, the Supreme Court should have denied Jones' motion to vacate.
