Beating a Default Judgment In Ohio

Beating a Default Judgment In Ohio

You’ve just received a garnishment order. Someone is trying to take money out of your paycheck, your bank, or is filing a lien against you. They claim that they’ve got a judgment against you in a case you’ve never even heard of. You call the court and, sure enough, a default judgment was entered against you. Now what?

• Prove that you didn’t respond because of mistake or confusion

• Prove that you didn’t know about it, that you never received the original complaint

• If you do any of these three things you have a much better position to fight the judgement
