FAQ

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.

The Court will strike all motions for default judgment that fail to provide sufficient notice. The moving party shall also append as exhibits to the motion for default judgment: (1) a copy of the Clerk's entry of default; (2) supporting affidavits or declarations; and (3) a proposed form of default judgment.

For that purpose the judgment debtor should approach the plaintiff/judgment creditor or his/her/its attorney to obtain the written consent to rescission of judgment. There is however no requirement in law that obliges a plaintiff/judgment creditor to give a consent to rescission of judgment.

Is a Default Judgment a Final Judgment? A default judgment is a final judgment because it is a decision on the merits (as it was properly heard). Therefore, if a party disagrees, they must file an appeal or a motion to reconsider. The defaulting party may obtain a reverse judgment if they appeal the decision.

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.

A "Default Judgment" is similar to a Judge's order in that it can be used to place a lien on your property, garnish your wages and/or affect your credit. The city usually requests that the maximum fine be imposed in default matters.

Allowing a default judgment to be entered against should be avoided at all costs. Once a default judgment is issued, serious consequences can unfold quickly—often without any further opportunity for you to present a defense. Also, fighting to strike or open a default judgment always makes your case more expensive.

Section 2-1301(e) provides litigants with the option to bring a motion to vacate a non-final or final order during the course of litigation. 735 ILCS 5/2-1301(e). Under section 2-1301(e), a litigant can move to vacate a non-final order or judgment at any time before that order or judgment becomes final.

A motion to vacate the chair or motion to declare the chair vacant, commonly shortened to motion to vacate, is a procedure in which a member of a legislative body proposes that the presiding officer vacates their office.

If a motion for default is granted, it means that the court has determined that the opposing party has failed to respond or take action within the required time frame.
