Second Circuit: No Extension of Time to Appeal If Failure to Receive Notice of Entry is Counsel's Fault | Practical Law
The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, in Communications Network International, Ltd. v. MCI Worldcom Communications, Inc., reversed the district court's order granting the defendant's motion to reopen the time within which to appeal, finding that the defendant's failure to update its contact information according to the court's rules was the reason it did not receive the entry of judgment.
