DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
It is well settled that a plaintiff seeking to vacate a default must demonstrate both a reasonable excuse for the default and the existence of a meritorious cause of action ( see CPLR 5015[a][1]; Parker v. City of New York, 272 A.D.2d 310). The plaintiffs failed to satisfy this standard. Therefore, the Supreme Court properly denied their motion.
SANTUCCI, J.P., GOLDSTEIN, SCHMIDT and COZIER, JJ., concur.
