Most judgments (the court order saying what you're owed) expire in 10 years. This means you can't collect on it after 10 years. To avoid this, you can ask the court to renew it. A renewal lasts 10 years.
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.
If the defendant has a valid reason for not responding, such as never being notified, they may file a motion asking the judge to set aside the default judgment. This is also called a motion for relief from default or a motion to vacate judgment.
If you have a valid reason, you can petition the judge to set aside default judgment by filing a motion to vacate which, if successful, would allow you to return to court and to contest your debt. Usually, upon filing, a hearing date will be scheduled for you to present your case before a judge.
Write the name and last known address of the judgment debtor in the space provided. You may also include any known aliases used by the judgment debtor. Fill in the last 4 digits of the judgment debtor's driver license number and state where it was issued, if you know them.
