Description

This case comes to us following the trial court's refusal to reconsider a default judgment entered against appellant. Although this court must give deference to a trial court's finding of fact, (see generally Dolan v. Buena Engineers, Inc., (1994) 24 Cal. App. 4th 1500), we find the error in this case turns on a question of law. The factual question as to whether the trial Judge erred in finding respondent fully complied with Code of Civil Procedure section 415.50(b) is irrelevant. We hold as a matter of law respondent failed to comply with the prerequisites in filing its application for an order allowing service by publication. Accordingly, we reverse and remand.
