Gorokhovskiy v. Barclays Bank Delaware - Appeal of Default Judgment

The Delaware Superior Court affirmed a default judgment entered against Viktor S. Gorokhovskiy in favor of Barclays Bank Delaware. Gorokhovskiy appealed the decision of the Court of Common Pleas, which had entered a default judgment after he failed to appear for trial. His appeal cited claims of insufficient service of process, lack of standing by Barclays, and judicial bias. The Superior Court reviewed the case based on Gorokhovskiy's opening brief and the appellate record, as Barclays failed to file an answering brief.

The court found no reversible error in the trial court's decision. The record indicated that Barclays had filed a complaint for a debt of $12,241.26, and service was confirmed at Gorokhovskiy's address. Despite Gorokhovskiy's contentions, the court concluded that the trial court's factual findings were sufficiently supported by the record and that its conclusions were the product of an orderly and logical deductive process. The appeal was decided based on the appellant's brief and the record due to the appellee's failure to file a response.
