FAQ
The term that defines an adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge of or examination of the facts is prejudice. Prejudice refers to a preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience.
Once a Default Judgment is issued, it has the same legal impact as if there had been a hearing on the merits of the case. A Default Hearing may also be held if the Judge has some additional questions about the case or if it is requested by a party.
All judgments must be in writing, and the court must mail copies to all parties. The judgment must clearly state the determination of the rights of the parties. The judgment is due and payable immediately after the judgment is rendered by the justice of the peace or a hearing officer in small claims court.
A default judgment may be entered against a minor, an incapacitated person, or adult in need of protection only if the person's parent, conservator, or guardian-as specified in Rule 17(g) - has appeared.
If a Default Judgment Is Entered, Act Fast If a default judgment has been entered against you, you must act quickly to open the judgment, generally within ten (10) days of its entry, or establish a defect on the face of the record to warrant a Court striking the judgment.
If you are charged with a crime you will usually receive notice by mail when charged for a preliminary hearing or similar hearing following the judge (or clerk) will advise you in person of the date of your next hearing. Otherwise, you may receive notice in the mail.
If you were arrested or received a citation in Arizona and want to check your court date, a good place to start in most instances is the Arizona Judicial Branch website, which allows you to search case information for most courts in the state.
To respond you need to: Download or ask the court for a blank answer form. Respond to each of the numbered claims in the complaint. Briefly explain your responses and raise any defenses you have. File your answer with the court and deliver a copy to the person suing you (or their lawyer, if they have one).
If you file a motion to reschedule later than ten days before your scheduled date, a warrant may be issued for your arrest (in criminal cases), or a default judgment will be entered against you (on civil charges) if you fail to appear. Please note that court employees have no authority to reschedule a court date.
Your answer should include the court name, case name, case number, and your affirmative defenses. Print three copies of your answer. File one with the clerk's office and mail (or “serve”) one to the plaintiff or plaintiff's attorney. The plaintiff is the debt collector, creditor, or law firm suing you.
