[MAJORITY — Per Curiam.]
Per Curiam.
There is nothing in the record which reflects unfavorably on the conduct of the defendant’s attorney. We think, however, in view of the nature of the action, that the court had discretionary power on its own motion to set aside the interlocutory judgment and that there was no abuse of discretion. The motion is, therefore, denied, without costs. Motion denied.
