Florida/Broward County - I filed a petition to modify my parenting plan on 9/12/14, the respondent was served on 9/15/14, I filed a motion for default on 10/7/14, the respondent filed her answer with the court on 10/9/14. She had to file her answer 20 days from date of service, since she filed late and my motion for default was entered, I have the following questions:
- How does the default impact the case?
- Will the judge still read her answer and take it into consideration before he make a ruling?
- How different would the case have been is the respondent filed her answer before the or on the 20th day?
- If she doesn't file a motion to set aside default, will that help with my case?
I am in the process of filing a motion for civil content, the respondent discussed the details of the case with my son the same day she was served a copy of the petition which is clear violation of our parenting plan.
Any information or suggestions/advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
