What is the time limit for setting aside a court order based on fraud?
Under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, in the federal court system, you must make a motion to set aside a judgment based on fraud within a reasonable time after entry of the judgment but in no event later than one year after entry of the judgment. State court rules may be different so you will have to review them if the judgment is a state court judgment.
Entry of judgment same as statement of decision?
No. A Statement of Decision is usually requested by the losing party after a bench (non-jury) trial before the judge alone. The Statement of Decision encompasses the ruling of the court, and addresses specific factual issues supporting the legal ruling. The Statement of Decision is important because it sets forth the required elements of each cause of action and basically sets the stage for any appeal. It is the court's Statement of Decision, but the court generally directs the prevailing party to prepare it. Generally, a proposed Judgment is submitted at the same time, but can be submitted later. Once the Statement of Decision is filed, all parties have a window of time to comment thereon or object thereto, and sometimes a hearing is held on the objections. Eventually, the court signs and issues its Statement of Decision, which the Judgment is then based upon. Once the Judgment is formally filed, either the clerk or often the prevailing party files a Notice of Entry of Judgment, which is then served on all parties. It is the Notice of Entry of Judgment which sets the date for subsequent court action, e.g., the parties have 30 days from Notice of Entry of Judgment in which to file an appeal.

What do you do if a judgment is incorrect?
You can try handling it informally directly with the creditor or formally by making application to the court for vacation of the wrong judgment and entry of a correct one. If dealing with the creditor there are a couple avenues of approach. Contact the creditor and explain why you believe the amount is wrong. If you convince the creditor you are right and are able to pay the correct amount immediately, then just pay it and have the creditor remove the judgment. The judgment will still be in the wrong amount but it will no longer be of record. You might also be able to arrange payment of less than even the correct amount of the judgment. Creditors do not want to collect small amounts of money each week on a garnishment when they can have the bulk of the debt in one lump sum and close the file. You might also convince the creditor itself to enter an amended judgment with the correct amount. If you are unable to work out it out informally and if you can prove that the amount is wrong, then you can make a motion for vacation of the wrong judgment and entry of a corrected one. If you are proceeding through court to do this and if you failed to defend against the lawsuit or ignored the summons, you might not be allowed to contest the amount of the judgment unless it is manifestly incorrect. Sometimes judgments are in higher amounts than the original debt because the court tacks on interest, counsel fees and court costs. If you chose not to answer the summons you might not be allowed to challenge those amounts. Remember, the time to challenge allegations is not after the judgment is entered. it is when you receive the complaint.
