If the judge denies a Motion to Set Aside, your only option is generally to file a new Petition in a new case. It is the responsibility of the petitioner to see that service on the other party is made within the period required by the law. A Motion to Extend Time for Service cannot be filed after the time for service has expired. The litigant must demonstrate good cause for the Court to grant such a Motion BEFORE time expires. The court cannot enter a judgment in the case that was dismissed as it was dismissed for cause and the Motion to Set Aside apparently failed to articulate sufficient cause for the judge to grant it.
