I'm not 100% sure but i believe it's default
A Request for Entry of Default is filed by the plaintiff when the defendant did not show up for the hearing and the plaintiff wants the court to enter an Entry of Default. The Entry of Default must be filed before a Default Judgment can be issued whereby the plaintiff will prevail in the lawsuit.If your case is not ready for a default hearing, you will receive a red notice with instructions on what to do next in your case to get a default hearing set, or if you cannot go by default. You should contact the court if you have questions.
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.
In Florida, when a party against whom action for affirmative relief has been filed (Defendant) fails to file an answer or serve any paper in the action within the time frame permitted by the rules of civil procedure, the party seeking relief (Plaintiff) may have the Clerk of the Court enter a default. The Plaintiff files a Motion for Default with the Clerk and provides a proposed Order. The Clerk will review the file and if it is found no answer was filed by the Defendant, the Clerk will sign the Order entering the Default.
