What is a default judgment? Default means a party has not done what is required of them in the time allowed. For example, a defendant (or respondent) did not file an answer to a complaint within the required time, or a plaintiff (or petitioner) did not answer a counterclaim within the required time.
Default judgment is judgment by administrative act rather than trial. It is the early determination of a claim by reason of the defendant's failure to file an acknowledgment of service or a defence within the time limits set down by the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR).
If default judgment has been entered incorrectly then the court will set it aside, although an application will usually need to be made.
