Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Massachusetts

Motion to Vacate ????A Civil

A Civil matter in which I was the defendant was closed/dismissed after a judgement was entered in my favor when the Plaintiff ''failed to appear'' at a Case Management Conference.

The Plaintiff subsequently filed a ''Motion to Vacate Judgement'' claiming that he forgot about the court date. He is asking the court to schedule a hearing on the motion on 2/21/2002 (his typo...).

Can I file a Motion stating my oppositon to his request

and ask the court to deny his motion ?

How should I proceed with this filing?

Thanks in advance for your help with this matter.
