Ashley Hayes v. Barrie Cunningham

Singer brought action for breach of contract against musical tribute show Producer. Producer did not attend trial and his counsel moved to withdraw immediately prior to trial. The court heard Singer’s evidence and entered judgment in Singer’s favor. Producer retained new counsel and moved for a new trial on the basis of excusable neglect.  The trial court denied the motion for a new trial and Producer appealed. Discerning no error, we affirm.
