I am confused about the serving of paper to appear before the Judge for a case which can end up as a Judgment,If you dont show up for your court appearance,then you have a default judgment enter against you. I asume a process server would serv papers on you to show up in court at a givin time and you would sign for these papers.The reason I ask this Question is I was never served papers to go to court I just got a default Judgment in the mail from the Courthouse/with a Judges signature on it. something does not make sence here.what I really need to know how do I get to this paper trail thing. :?:
Go down the courthouse and obtain a copy of the case file. Chec
Go down the courthouse and obtain a copy of the case file. Check for the Method of Service to see how they say you were served. You will need to file a Motion to Vacate Judgement due to improper service. What state do you live in? check www dot serve-em dot com for your states rules of service.
