FAQ
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.
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.
Enforcing Your Judgment Below are the legal steps that you may take to collect your judgment in the order in which you may want to proceed: Get in touch with the judgment debtor. Levy (seize) assets that you have personal knowledge of. Examine judgment debtor in court to locate unknown assets.
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.

When a default is entered, the party who requested the entry of default must obtain a default judgment against the defaulting party within 45 days after the default was entered, unless the court has granted an extension of time.
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.
