MATTER OF JULIE T

Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

A party seeking to be relieved of a default pursuant to CPLR 5015 must establish both a reasonable excuse for the default and the existence of a meritorious defense ( see, Matter of Little Flower Children's Servs. [Sean Courtney G.] v. Vernon J., 213 A.D.2d 548; Matter of Raymond Anthony A., 192 A.D.2d 529; Matter of Nathalie A., 145 A.D.2d 629; Matter of Shirley C., 145 A.D.2d 631). The record shows that the appellant failed to sustain her burden.

Thompson, J. P., Sullivan, Florio and McGinity, JJ., concur.
