Orders of default judgment (aka judgment in default) are obtained in two different ways: by using an administrative process – a Request - judgment is entered by a court officer; or. by filing an application for Judgment in Default, with a Form N244 Application Notice.
For good cause shown, and upon terms the court deems just, the court may set aside a judgment entered upon a failure to appear. A motion to set aside a default judgment shall be made in writing within 30 days after entry of the default judgment.
A defendant can challenge the entry of default by filing a motion pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(c), which allows the court to set it aside for “good cause” shown. Under certain circumstances, the court is required to do so.
If you do not think the default judgment was appropriately entered against you, you must file a motion with the court asking the judge to “set aside” (void or nullify) the judgment. If the judge grants your motion, the case starts back up again.
You have four main options to deal with a default judgment: Accept the judgment. Settle the judgment for less. Challenge the judgment. Pursue debt relief.
For that purpose the judgment debtor should approach the plaintiff/judgment creditor or his/her/its attorney to obtain the written consent to rescission of judgment. There is however no requirement in law that obliges a plaintiff/judgment creditor to give a consent to rescission of judgment.

Second, even if the default judgment was properly obtained the court can still set aside a default judgment. There are three things that you must satisfy the court of: A reasonable explanation for the failure to file a defence; That there has been no delay in your bringing your application; and.
