London Finance Group v. Amstem Corp.
Defendant Amstem Corporation (Amstem) appeals from the default judgment for $1,436,766 against it. Amstem argues we must reverse the default judgment because (1) plaintiff London Finance Group, Ltd. (London Finance) did not sufficiently plead one cause of action and did not establish a prima facie case of another; and (2) the damages award was not supported by substantial evidence. We agree that London Finance did not make a prima facie case for its breach of contract cause of action and did not support the damages award with sufficient evidence. These defects do not affect the underlying default of Amstem, however. We reverse and remand for a new default prove-up proceeding.
