FAQ
File the original and both copies with the Clerk. Complete the rest of this guide when you are ready to request the judgment. Your deadline is within 45 days after entry of default, unless you ask the court for an extension.
If you didn't get the papers that started the lawsuit (you weren't served) or you couldn't respond for a really good reason, like you were in the hospital or serving in the military, you may be able to cancel the default judgment and defend yourself.
If the court sent a Notice of Entry of Default If the court has your address, the clerk mails you a Notice of Entry of Default. If they sent this, you must file and serve the request to set aside within 180 days from the date you were served that notice.
Regardless of whether any payments are made, your judgment does not last forever. In Ohio, judgments go “dormant” in 5 years after the latter of: (a) when the judgment was issued, or (b) the last time it was used to create a lien, generate a seizure, obtain a garnishment order, or any other similar effort.
And some states also allow judgment liens on the debtor's personal property -- things like jewelry, art, antiques, and other valuables. In Ohio, a judgment lien can be attached to real estate only (such as a house, land, or similar property interest).

Follow the Rules of Court and CCP to make sure your default is proper and enforceable. You must be prepared to enter evidence through documents and testimony.One district judge offered that she is cautious about entering defaults, and that, in her experience, service is often the problem. If the Plaintiff does not show up for the trial and the Defendant does appear, if the Defendant asks, the Court may dismiss the case without prejudice. This form is used in the Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo. Defendant failed to respond to the complaint and default was entered. If the judge grants your motion, the case starts back up again. You can then appear in the case and assert whatever defense you have to plaintiff's claims. If you are looking to get out of the default judgment, then you will need to file a motion to vacate or set aside judgment. If the defendant didn't show up in your matter, the judge will likely call your case early as a default case.
