384 LAWS OF MARYLAND. [CH. 169

thirty days after entry thereof, strike out the same and
reinstate such case with leave to such defendant to file pleas,
affidavit and certificate of counsel, or amend his pleas, affi-
davit and certificate of counsel already filed, within not
exceeding ten days thereafter, whenever the Court shall
be of the opinion that the interests of justice will be pro-
moted by striking out such judgment and so reinstating
such case, although sufficient grounds for striking out such
judgment for fraud, deceit, irregularity, or such other
grounds as would have sufficed before the enactment of this
section may not be present; provided, however, that it shall
be mandatory upon the Court granting such order to re-
quire as a condition thereto, that the defendant give bond
with approved security for the payment of any judgment
finally recovered against him in such case in such penalty
as may be prescribed by the Court, and that the defendant
pay the costs so far incurred in said case, or any other con-
ditions which the Court may deem proper; and if any de-
fendant who has been given leave to file pleas, affidavit or
certificate of counsel, or to amend those already filed, un-
der this section, shall fail to file a sufficient plea, affidavit
or certificate of counsel, or to amend those already filed so
as to be sufficient within the time so limited, then the plain-
tiff shall be entitled to final entry of judgment on motion
therefore, in the same manner as for failure to file a suffi-
cient plea, affidavit or certificate of counsel within the time
originally limited under the preceding sections.
