Syllabus

The trial court abused its discretion when it overruled Appellant's motion for relief from judgment based on a purported failure to present a meritorious defense. In its motion, Appellant alleged that the action had been filed against the wrong party. Appellant was required only to allege a meritorious defense, not to prove that it will prevail on that defense. Judgment reversed and remanded.
