SUMMARY ORDER Heatherlyn Francis appeals the district court’s grant of
summary judgment dismissing her employment discrimination complaint. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the facts, proceedings below, and specification of appellate issues. We hold as follows. First, as the defendants correctly concede, the judgment granted in this case must be vacated and remanded in order for the district court to fairly set forth the basis for its decision. See Vt. Teddy Bear Co. v. 1-800 Beargram Co., 873 F.3d 241, 244-45 (2d Cir.2004). Second, plaintiffs motions to vacate a default judgment and to vacate entry of default under, respectively, Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 60(
b) and 55(
c) are not properly before the court. Any such motion — assuming that it could be made at all given that the holding at issue here is a grant of
summary judgment — must be made in the district court. Had plaintiff made such a motion and the district court denied it, we would review the district court’s order for abuse of discretion. See New York v. Green, 420 F.3d 99, 104 (2d Cir.2005). Because plaintiff did not move for vacatur in district court, we have no order before us to review. We note, however, that plaintiff is not without the possibility of a remedy. After the district court entered its discovery orders and granted
summary judgment, plaintiff made submissions to the district court suggesting that her defaults in complying with discovery demands and with the
schedule for opposing defendants’ motion for
summary judgment may have been due to her former counsel rather than to her. Because we now vacate the grant of
summary judgment, the district court has inherent discretion to revisit its interlocutory orders should it find that modifying them is in the interest of justice. See Grace v. Rosenstock, 228 F.3d 40, 51 (2d Cir.2000). Finally, we have considered plaintiff’s remaining arguments and find them to be without merit. We therefore vacate and remand for further proceedings in accord with this order.
