FAQ
Default Hearing Process: During the default hearing, the petitioner presents their case, providing evidence to support their claims. The judge evaluates the evidence and considers the petitioner's arguments.
Allowing a default judgment to be entered against should be avoided at all costs. Once a default judgment is issued, serious consequences can unfold quickly—often without any further opportunity for you to present a defense. Also, fighting to strike or open a default judgment always makes your case more expensive.
You can file a motion to revise or vacate (cancel) the judgment in writing within 30 days after the date of the judgment. This motion is usually filed to correct clerical errors, or to vacate a judgment if you believe that you were not served with the court papers or were not notified of the court date.
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.
This means that you do not file any response by the deadline. The Plaintiff then can ask the judge to decide the case without your input. This is called a default or a default judgment. Get help if you have a default but didn't want one.
Generally speaking, in a default hearing, you will get everything that you asked for that is allowable under the law. When the other side chooses not to respond, the court has the discretion to award relief on every issue that you requested. Keep in mind that they cannot give you something that the law does not allow.
