A default judgment is a final resolution of a court case in favor of one party due to the other party's failure to take a required action to participate in the case.
Obtaining a default judgment by declaration in California is authorized by Code of Civil Procedure section 585(d) which permits a default judgment to be entered using declarations in lieu of personal testimony which avoids the time and expense of a Court hearing.
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.
A default judgment occurs when the defendant in a legal case fails to respond to a court summons or does not appear in court. If this occurs, a court may rule in favor of the plaintiff by default.
Requirements Before You Can Enter a Default: (1) Defendant must be served with Summons and Complaint.(2) The time for responding to the Summons and Complaint must have passed.(3) Defendant must have failed to file a responsive pleading to the Complaint.(4) Defendant must be served with a Statement of Damages.
