Argued December 16,
    affirmed December 27, 1976
    In the Matter of the Dissolution of the Marriage of VOGT, Respondent, and VOGT, Appellant.
    
    (No. 75-723, CA 6884)
    557 P2d 704
    
      Donald S. Kelley, Roseburg, argued the cause for appellant. With him on the brief was Luoma, Kelley & Wolke, Roseburg.
    
      James C. Farrell, P.C., and Robert C. Millikan, Roseburg, filed the brief for respondent.
    Before Schwab, Chief Judge, and Fort and Thornton, Judges.
    PER CURIAM.
   PER CURIAM.

In this dissolution-of-marriage proceeding the former wife appeals from an order of the trial court denying her motion to vacate a decree of dissolution on the ground of surprise and excusable neglect. She contends that it was an abuse of discretion for the trial judge to deny her motion. Suffice it to say that under the circumstances only if the trial judge had allowed the motion would abuse of discretion be a serious issue.

It is particularly difficult to understand the appellant’s position in view of the fact that after she learned of the default order and decree, rather than immediately moving to vacate the decree, she married another man.

Affirmed.
