On the same day the trial court issued its decision, appellants moved to late file their opposition to summary judgment, asserting without explanation that they had not met the extended filing deadline due to “inadvertence, excusable neglect and/or circumstances beyond Plaintiffs’ control.” The following week, appellants filed a supplemental motion asking the court to reconsider its order of summary judgment pursuant to Superior Court Civil Rules 59 and 60(b). Appellants’ counsel averred that he had been prevented from filing a timely opposition by “circumstances beyond his control,” though he did not explain what those circumstances were.
