A quick definition of No-answer default judgment:

Term: No-answer default judgment

Definition: When someone sues another person and the person being sued doesn't respond or show up to court, the judge can automatically decide in favor of the person who filed the lawsuit. This is called a no-answer default judgment.

A more thorough explanation:

No-answer default judgment

A no-answer default judgment is a legal decision made in favor of the plaintiff when the defendant fails to respond to a lawsuit within the given time frame or fails to appear in court. This means that the plaintiff automatically wins the case without the need for a trial or further legal proceedings.

Example 1: John files a lawsuit against Jane for breach of contract. Jane fails to respond to the lawsuit within the given time frame, and as a result, the court issues a no-answer default judgment in favor of John.

Example 2: Mary is sued by her landlord for unpaid rent. Mary fails to appear in court on the scheduled date, and the court issues a no-answer default judgment in favor of the landlord.

A no-answer default judgment is a legal decision that is made when the defendant fails to respond to a lawsuit or fails to appear in court. This means that the plaintiff automatically wins the case without the need for a trial or further legal proceedings. The examples illustrate how a no-answer default judgment can be issued in different types of cases, such as breach of contract or unpaid rent.
