What does this mean Plaintiff's MSJ and M/Default Judgment granted. Judgment signed
Anonymous3 views2 answers
A motion for summary judgment is appropriate when there are no facts in dispute and the law is in the other side's favor. A motion for default judgment is filed when there is no response to a complaint. In other words, you default, the judge accepted the other side's version of the facts and found in their favor. Your time to fight is limited before the decision becomes final.

MSJ= Motion for summary judgment. Default Judgment = you did not oppose the plaintiff's case so the court had no choice but to grant judgment in the plaintiff's favor for whatever the claims were in the complaint. If you have defenses, you need to find a lawyer pronto, you may have a chance to reverse this but time is of the essence.
