Marriage of Mitchell CA2/3
Petitioner Paula Mitchell appeals from the order of the trial court setting aside the default and default judgment of dissolution taken against her husband, respondent Rodger Mitchell. (Code Civ. Proc., § 473, subd. (b).) Paula’s appeal also challenges the court’s subsequent order denying her motion for reconsideration. (§ 1008.) We hold that the trial court lacked jurisdiction to grant statutory relief under section 473 and Rodger did not seek relief under the relevant provisions of the Family Code. Accordingly, we reverse both orders.
