There are strict timelines to attempt to over turn a default. Better contact an atty.

The case is over, and you lost. You had to respond to the lawsuit within 30 days. If you had a defense to the lawsuit, for example you did not owe money to the plaintiff, see an attorney immediately.

If you haven't already seen an attorney, do it NOW. You have lost the case. Undoing that MAY be possible but all the presumptions are against you. It may be too late already.
