Response To Declaration Of Default In Payment Of Judgment {SC-224}

SC-224 - RESPONSE TO DECLARATION OF DEFAULT IN PAYMENT OF JUDGMENT (Small Claims). This form is used in a Small Claims case if the judge agreed you can make payments, the other side says you didn't (they filed a Declaration of Default in Payment of Judgment (form SC-223)), and you want to tell the judge your side. If the court ordered that you may make payments on a judgment, and another plaintiff, defendant, or person to whom the judgment was assigned (judgment creditor) has filed form SC-223, Declaration of Default in Payment of Judgment, asking the court to order that the full balance is now due and collectible because you did not make the payments: • Read this form and the Declaration. • If you agree with the court ordering that the amounts claimed in the Declaration are now due in full, you do not need to do anything. • If you do not agree with the Declaration or with the court ordering that the amounts it claims are now due in full, file a Response within 10 days after the court clerk mailed the Declaration to you. (This date is on the Clerk’s Certificate of Mailing.) If you do not do so, the court may order that the balance of the judgment is now due and collectible in full and may also order interest on the unpaid amount of the judgment.
