Respondent doesn't respond to dissolution of marriage?
If the respondent does not respond to a dissolution of marriage within a certain amount of time, the defendant will most likely get everything they want. The judge will award the defendant with everything they are asking for because the respondent is not there to tell their side of the story or to argue with what the defendant has put in the agreement.

What is Request of entry of default?
When a person (the plaintiff) sues someone (the defendant), the defendant gets a certain amount of time to respond to the lawsuit (times vary by state). If the defendant does not respond to the lawsuit within the time period prescribed or does not show up to court on the day he or she is supposed to, the plaintiff will ask for (and the court will usually give) a default judgment. Simply put, the plaintiff wins because the defendant did not make an effort to defend themselves. A request for entry of default is when the time has passed for the defendant to respond to a lawsuit and the plaintiff is asking for a default judgment. This only applies to civil cases, not criminal cases.

How do you answer the 'first pleading' to a lawsuit summons from a debt collector?
The defendant should respond in concise and clear manner to all the charges that are outlined in the suit. For example, the defendant should state whether he or she is indeed liable for the debt for which they are being sued. Be certain that any statement given is truthful to the best of your knowledge, as the respondent is considered to be under oath and subject to the penalties of perjury. Please be advised that the defendant is not legally required to respond to a summons but by not doing so he or she acknowleges that the lawsuit is valid. In some states the failure to respond results in a judgment being entered in favor of the plaintiff.
