FAQ

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.

After your creditor has obtained a judgment against an individual (i.e. not a registered entity) defendant, that creditor can then serve out a Notice of Right to Claim exemption. The judgment debtor has 20 days from the date of service to complete the form and get it filed with the appropriate clerk of court.

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.

The North Carolina Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b) allows relief from a default judgment. In their sole discretion, this rule allows a judge to set aside a default judgment in situations involving, among other things: mistake, inadvertence, surprise, misrepresentation, fraud, or excusable neglect.

Can a default judgment affect my credit score or ability to obtain future financing? Yes, a default judgment may negatively affect your credit score, and will be a lien on all of your real estate. Buying and selling real estate will be negatively affected by the entry of a default judgment.

What is a Motion for Default Judgment? Imagine you've taken someone to court, but they've ignored all proceedings. A motion for default judgment allows you to ask the court to automatically decide in your favor due to the other party's lack of response or action.

Depending on whether your pleading was verified, or not, this can be as quick as a few days in cases where the clerk can enter default, or as long as a few weeks in the event a hearing is necessary in order to secure a default judgment.
