This is an appeal from an order of the' Special Term that opens a .default in service of an answer. As the learned Special Term did not impose any terms, we may conclude that it opened the default as a matter of right. (Cohen v. Meryash, 93 N. Y. Supp. 529.) This was error, -inasmuch as the defendant relied upon a verbal stipulation extending its time, which the plaintiff deposes was not given. If it had been made it could not be enforced against the protest of the other party. (Gen. Rules Pr. rule 11 ; Bradford v. Downs, 25 App. Div. 581.) The court then feould have opened this default only as a matter of favor, and we think that it did not act within its discretion when it failed to impose any terms whatever upon the moving party. (See Shenstone v. Wilson, 117 App. Div. 752; Cohen v. Meryash, supra.)
The order is reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, *7and the motion is denied, with costs; without prejudice to the defendant to make a timely motion to open its default as a matter of favor.
