Legal Question in Family Law in California
Inappropriate Response
If a party submits a response which is inappropriate in form (not the valid blank response form submitted with the Petition), nor in substance, and the court first stamps its seal ''filed'' and then writes ''cancel'' over it with a note saying it is in appropriate, does this consitute an appearance or because of its inappropriate form can the Petitioner get a default?

In a general sense, and based solely upon the information you have provided, there has been no appearance and you can proceed with default.
For a specific opinion regarding your individual circumstances, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
