Q: How do I file a motion to vacate a default judgment?
This week’s legal reference question of the week is a frequently asked question among self-represented litigants.
Although the courts provide many pre-made forms for convenience, this is one type of form that you need to create. However, instead of re-creating this form, it is easier to use one of our many sample templates as a guide.
For a motion to vacate a default judgment, see California Civil Practice: Procedures, Chapter 29 which provides the legal principles as well as a sample motion to set aside a default judgment.
I like your feature “Legal Reference Question of the Week”.
It is very intructional, thanks!
