• “While V.R.C.P. 60(b)(1) permits relief from 2 judgment for reasons of mistake or inadvertence, it does not operate to protect a party from tactical decisions which in retrospect may seem ill advised.”
• “[A]n acceptance of an offer, to be good, must in every respect meet and correspond with the offer . . . . An acceptance on terms varying from those proposed is, in effect, a counter proposal, and is not binding until it is itself accepted.” (quotation omitted)
