When a Final Judgment of Eviction is granted, a Writ of Possession is then signed by the Clerk of Court. After the Clerk signs it, they send it to the Sheriff. The Sheriff will then post the Writ on the Tenant's door. The Tenant will then have twenty-four hours to vacate the property.
A common summary of the rules for setting aside (excusing) a default is frequently quoted by Florida appellate courts: A party attempting to set aside a clerk's default must demonstrate excusable neglect, a meritorious defense, and due diligence in order for the trial court to vacate the default.

With few exceptions, once a default judgment is entered in Florida, a defendant loses their chance to fight the judgment. In other words, it typically does not matter if, later on, the defendant asserts that the judgment is unfair, uses incorrect numbers, is based on wrong information, or any other number of excuses.
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.
