Dissenting Opinion by
Jacobs, J.:I respectfully dissent.
The discretion traditionally accorded the lower court in matters involving the opening of judgments seems to me particularly appropriate in cases where the reasonableness of an attorney’s conduct involves local practice and custom. If, in the case at bar, local practice and custom included an understanding that a judgment would not be taken under the present circumstances absent notification to opposing counsel, the lower court was justified, in the exercise of its sound discretion, in holding the technical lapse of appellees’ attorney excused. Cf. Good v. Sworob, 420 Pa. 435, 218 A.2d 240 (1966). For that reason, I believe that the order of the court below should be affirmed.
