Re: File for default

you only have to wait 20 days for him to respond. then you file the application for default, sending him a copy. Wait 14 days(10 plus 4 for mailing) to respond to that. if he does not respond then you can simply go online and get a hearing date. no need to provide him notice of the hearing date. Good luck.
