Case Caption: Basic Services Inc. v. Govt of the VICase Number: SCT-CIV-2020-0117Date: 06/09/2026Author: Form Field 41Cabret, Maria M. Citation: 2026 VI 13Summary: In a breach of contract case, considering an order of the Superior Court denying the appellant’s motion for relief from the judgment’ under Virgin Islands Rules of Civil Procedure 60(b)(2) and (b)(6), while certain letters regarding non-payment are newly discovered evidence for purposes of Rule 60(b)(2), as they contain facts in existence at the time of the judgment, the appellant failed to exercise reasonable diligence to determine the reason for such non-payment, and its claims under Rule 60(b)(2) therefore fail. The appellant’s argument under Rule 60(b)(6) also fails because it reiterates the same arguments that it advanced under Rule 60(b)(2), and Rule 60(b)(6) provides only grounds for relief that are not already covered by Rule 60(b)(1)-(5). Therefore, the Superior Court was correct in denying the appellant’s motion for relief pursuant to Rule 60(b)(2) and (6). The judgment of the Superior Court is affirmed.Attachment: Open Document or Opinion
