Eight days notice of the motion, or such other notice as the court\nshall deem appropriate, shall be served upon the party alleged to be in\ndefault, in such manner as the court shall direct.\n 3.

If the court shall find that a\nsubstantial issue of fact has been raised as to the making of the\ncontract or submission, or the failure to comply therewith, and the\nmotion shall not have been denied as a matter of law, the court shall\nproceed expeditiously with the trial thereof without a jury, unless\neither party upon argument of the motion shall have demanded in writing\na trial by jury of the issue of the making of the contract or\nsubmission, in which event the court shall proceed as promptly as may be\npracticable with such trial before a jury.\n
