FAQ
To stop the entry of a default or default judgment before it is entered, one generally has to file something in court. This can be an Answer, a Motion to Extend Time, a Motion to Quash Service of Process, or perhaps others. A motion will likely interrupt entry of a default, but a motion is merely a request.
The process of obtaining default judgment is usually a relatively straightforward exercise. Fill in a form, send it to the court, and wait to hear back. It gets that easy, because the defendant didn't respond to the claim. That's what the Response Pack is for: it tells the defendant what they need to do.

A default occurs and is recorded on your credit report when you have missed three consecutive payments on a payment obligation. A judgment is a legal ruling that occurs when a creditor or service provider acts against a borrower for unpaid debts.
A default judgment (also known as judgment by default ) is a ruling granted by a judge or court in favor of a plaintiff in the event that the defendant in a legal case fails to respond to a court summons or does not appear in court.
Usually, the plaintiff files a motion for default judgment if the defendant doesn't respond or fails to attend a hearing. The plaintiff has to provide an affidavit of the material facts, proof the defendant was served, and proof of damages.
Default judgment is a binding judgment in favor of either party based on some failure to take action by the other party. Most often, it is a judgment in favor of a plaintiff when the defendant has not responded to a summons or has failed to appear before a court of law. The failure to take action is the default.
Generally, if a defendant fails to respond to a complaint you can get a default judgment after 45 days. However, the court system is very slow these days and it can take several months to get the court to issue the default judgment.
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.
