Description
The only issue presented in this appeal is whether the trial judge erred in striking appellants answer to respondents cross-complaint and in entering a default judgment in favor of respondent pursuant to the provisions of subdvision (d) of section 2034 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Subdivision (d) reads in pertinent part as follows: "If a party or a person for whose immediate benefit the action or proceeding is prosecuted or defended or anyone who at the time the deposition is set is an officer, director, or managing agent of any such party or person willfully fails to appear before the officer who is to take his deposition, after said party or his attorney has been served with a proper notice in accordance with the provisions of subdivision (a)(4) of Section 2019 of this code,. .. the court on motion and notice may strike out all or any part of any pleading of that party, or dismiss the action or proceeding or any part thereof, or enter a judgment by default against that party, or impose such other penalties of a lesser nature as the court may deem just, and may order that party or his attorney to pay to the moving party the reasonable expenses in making such motion, including reasonable attorneys fees."
