You may be able to negotiate a settlement with the debt collector to allow you to pay off the judgment under better terms. In Limited Civil cases (cases for $25,000 or less), if the other side will not agree to a payment plan, you can ask the judge to order a payment plan. This requires filing a motion.

You file a motion by completing the form and filing it with the same court that signed the default entry or default judgment. There is a $20 motion fee for filing a motion to set aside default.
A default judgment is a judgment entered in the trial court when a defendant hasn't filed a response in a timely manner. For a response to be timely, it must be made by 10 a.m. on the Monday following the expiration of 20 days after the date the defendant was served with the citation and petition.
For example, let's say Annie files a lawsuit against Bridget. Bridget appears in court to argue her side of the case, but Annie forgets to go to court. The judge enters a default judgment against Annie and dismisses the lawsuit because Annie did not show up in court.
