Nothing. The response is not due within 30-days, it is due before the hearing.

Different courts have different ways of handling the matter. Some courts will not allow for a response to be filed any later than 10 days prior to the hearing. Other courts will simply continue the matter to allow for a response. And yet others may allow you to proceed by default. I would suggest you speak with a local attorney to help you with this issue.
