FAQ
If the defendant responds to the lawsuit, then it can take months or even years, to finally get to a judgment – depending on how hard the defendant fights. If the defendant does not answer the lawsuit and we secure a default judgment, we must wait an additional 30 days before taking further actions.
If you have a judgment against you and you fail to comply with those orders, you can be arrested for contempt of court.
