Synopsis
In this nonpayment proceeding, the landlord moved to restore the case to the court calendar after a nine-year delay following an interlocutory appeal. The court denied the motion, finding that the landlord failed to demonstrate a reasonable excuse for the lengthy delay, a crucial factor for granting restoration motions. The court emphasized the importance of diligence in prosecuting legal claims and the potential prejudice to the tenant from such a significant delay.
