Civil Practice: Ejectment Action-Failure to Appear-Default Judgment

Where appellant did not timely appear in an ejectment action and the district court entered a default judgment based on a finding that he willfully refused to appear, the court did not abuse its discretion, and the default judgment was appropriate.

Judgment is affirmed.
