The Court exercised its discretion to reinstate the proceeding and extend time because the plaintiff provided a satisfactory explanation (medical evidence of depression), the claim had sufficient merit and reinstatement caused no particular prejudice to defendants that outweighed overall justice; costs were ordered against the plaintiff on a 2B basis for specified appearances and no stay was imposed pending payment.
