If it has been 30 days or less, you can get rid of ("vacate") a default judgment by filing a motion. This is a written request to the judge asking them to throw out the judgment. You will have to send a copy of the motion to the other party in the case, and then show up in court for a hearing.
If you file a motion to vacate a default or a default judgment, you must file an answer to the original complaint along with any cross claims or counterclaims you may wish to assert, and the motion must be accompanied by the appropriate fee.

To set aside a default judgment, the defendant must demonstrate that its failure to answer or otherwise appear and defend was due to excusable neglect under the circumstances and that it has a meritorious defense either to the cause of action itself or the quantum of damages assessed.
