It is believed that Judges make rulings and orders, which they do, but most people do not realize that the attorneys prepare the documents and submit those for the Judge to implement or make those orders and rulings binding. That includes orders on a judgment by default. This video describes the process and what is involved to take a judgment by default.

If there are multiple defendants, and only 1 defaults does the case proceed? How long does it take to get a judicial (out of state) motion approved? Thanks😊

I was served at my home for a lawsuit at my home and I then went to the courthouse to answer them. I filed the answer with a fee waiver: however, even though I had no income because of my contract work the court denied the waiver. It was then some 4 months before I had recived in the mail from the plaintiff an Application for Summery Judgement, I then went back to the court and filed the fee waiver a second time and this time was granted while I was standing there with the clerk. I then filed two motions. The first was to Notice of Motion to Compel Set Aside the judgement and Default and Quash Any Writ of Possession and was given a date for me to appear at a later date and the other Motion to Compel was for Arbitration. This is a clause in the contract and when I had asked the plaintiff about that they just got quite and would not say anything or reply, so I filed that motion and was given a date much later to appear for it. So my question would be " Being that the Court gave me those dates and nothing of mine as of this day has been siezed, or gasrnished am I still in good position for the later date for Arbitration with the court with the situation as it is now ? ".

It sounds like the case is still alive and once you have a hearing on the Motion to Compel Arbitration then the case will be dismissed and you will start over in arbitration or the Motion would be denied and the case will continue in the court.

Wished i had seen this last month. Were loosing our home and all our possessions in 3 days time. 2019 Life was great. Nice home , lovely wife, good times. Then it all Changed. Just like that. Because my wife was such a caring kind of woman She opted to Stand up for a former colleague. Against the bullies. The bulling just shifted to her. My wife has developed mental health issues after years of abuse at work. Resulting in having to give up work. 1 less wage coming in. After our £13,000.00 savings dwindled paying bills etc Bills keep coming . The van i had recently purchased. Packed in Didnt have the funds to fix it. Demand upon demand, I got scared of opening letters. We have sat in darkness for nearly 3 years now. Never open the curtains anymore for being scared . Everytime i have to leave the house. I fear im going to come home to my wife lyin dead. Were just existing. I now feel like my wife . We would be less problematic if we just weren't here. I cant see past this. Once we lose everything in few days. We will have nothing. Become Homeless. Im a proud man, Reduced to the acceptance of our fate to be. The day will come, we will be gone. 2 and half years till mortgage cleared. Thousands paid in interest, from money that was created by typing the amount on the computer. So never even existed to begin with.

@DogsDroolll “Qui n’avance pas, recule” Hey there. Thankyou for asking. Not doing so good. Yes , we lost our home.😪 They sold our home with all our contents still In property. We moved in to mother inlaws, Sadly died sudden with cancer. Local authorities re-housed us. We had 4 days to move house, I asked if I could store belongings in a garage on the property, They agreed for me to have 2 weeks to empty belongings, Only the representative at council office never relaid this on to the right department, they sent cleaning squad and removed everything we managed to salvage fir loosing our house. So now we have nothing . And can't get help anywhere. I honestly think I would be better off not being on this awful planet. I've have had everything taken from us. I've never felt so alone

Okay will put that on the list. Meanwhile you should have a hearing on the Motion and if the time period passed then you provide a judgment to the court to be filed. Would be best to have an attorney do that for you- should not be expensive.

Hello I had a bit of a different question I wanna default judgment in the paper which is an affidavit and request for default judgment is a little confusing saying pretty much they have to answer within 15 days of the date of the fall defendant was served personally or notoriously on, that’s the date and proof of service was filed with Magistrate court on the date again. Do you know if they’re speaking of the day he was served at first or do I need to have him served again after the default was granted in court

I was wondering if I receive a judgment that I wanted to collect on but I just realized that the judgement isn't entered in his legal name? (Bob instead of Robert.) Can I enter the name he goes by and his legal name on the forms when filing with the county? Is their somewhere I can add it and have the judgement recognized by his legal name? Thanks in advance. I can't really afford to hire an attorney but I'm willing to put in the time.

Hi @Jayson The courts have a procedure to correct judgments if there were mistakes. You should use counsel to be sure that the rules are followed so that you do not jeopardize what you have already achieved and you make the request/motion timely.

Hi! What if the defendant sent out the answer on the 29th day (served with mail) to the WRONG address. Filed affidavit of service on the 33rd day. And asked if I received the answer and sent it to me electronically through email after 30 days. Can I file motion for default judgement and would I win?

I’m currently on probation with getting this default judgement be a violation of it? So as soon as I got served I contacted the creditor and I set up a payment arrangement not knowing that they would be still putting a default judgment against me I thought I was doing the right thing at the right time. But I would like to reverse that if I can and turn in my papers and show up to court that day so that I don’t have a default judgment. I was just trying to get it out-of-the-way and pay what I could. Not realizing that I messed up and answering but that’s what I wanted. Of course they were just trying to get money out of me as soon as they could. This is my first time ever dealing with anything like this

Court filings must always be responded to by filing with the court. If there was a copy sent to the attorney but nothing was filed in the Court that needs to be fixed - so send the copy to the court and then respond by appearing at the hearing and giving the explanation. Once back on track you can proceed from there. good luck!

Hi Jacob. Yes- if you are the plaintiff and you win then you are to prepare the Judgment or Journal Entry (whatever that court calls them) and you present it to the judge. Then after it is signed and filed you can send to the defendant. In small claims or limited actions or associate circuit or whatever the quicker venues are called where you are- the clerk should be able to help with a template. Some courts have self help centers.

Even if the other party then supplies the discovery, once you file the motion, they could still be on the hook for it. Just make sure to give them notice of your intent to file a motion to compel first. That way the other party is aware of the consequences that are looming.
