I am writing to respectfully submit this Tennessee Sample Letter to Judge, requesting the court's consideration of a default judgment in the aforementioned case. I, [Your Full Name], as the plaintiff in this matter, have diligently pursued all lawful avenues for resolution and have exhausted all reasonable efforts for the defendant, [Defendant's Full Name], to respond or participate in the proceedings. Regrettably, the defendant has failed to appear, answer, or engage in any legal correspondence pertaining to this case. The defendant, despite being served with proper notice of the lawsuit and the requisite time elapsed, has not answered the complaint or presented any valid legal defense. Consequently, their lack of engagement demonstrates a clear default in this matter. Given these circumstances, I respectfully ask the court to consider granting a default judgment in favor of the plaintiff. 1. Nature of Default Judgment Requested: The default judgment sought is a sum certain judgment, as it is based on agreed-upon facts or an established default amount. This judgment aims to obtain the total amount of [amount] in compensation for damages, costs, and any other applicable relief as outlined in the original complaint. 2. Grounds for Default Judgment: a. Failure to Answer/Respond: Despite being served with the complaint on [Date], the defendant has neither answered nor responded to the allegations within the provided timeframe. b. Lack of Participation: The defendant has not attended any court hearings, settlement conferences, or provided any form of correspondence, indicating their unwillingness to engage in the proceedings or contest the claims presented. 3. Request for Expedited Consideration: In light of the defendant's continued non-participation and the substantial delay this has caused in concluding this legal matter, I kindly request the court's consideration for an expedited review of this default judgment submission. This request is essential to ensure fairness, timely resolution, and to avoid further prejudice to the plaintiff's rights. Enclosed with this letter, please find the following documents for the court's review and consideration: 1. Affidavit of Service: Providing verification of proper service of the complaint on the defendant; 2. Verified Complaint: Detailing the specific allegations, claims, and requested relief; 3. Certificate of Non-Appearance: Demonstrating the defendant's absence from court proceedings or any response submissions. I humbly request that the court grant the default judgment promptly, considering the defendant's deliberate refusal to actively participate in this case. Additionally, I urge the court to order the defendant to bear the costs and fees associated with this legal process as allowed by law. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Your prompt consideration of this Tennessee Sample Letter to Judge — Default Judgment Submission is greatly appreciated. Respectfully, [Your Full Name] [Your Case's Title/Designation] [Your Phone Number] [Your Email Address]
