Re: Filing an Answer
They are probably wondering what to do next.
They are not under any specific timetable to respond. And forcing the issue on your side gets a bit too procedurally complicated to do without the aid of counsel.
At this point you may consider calling the creditor's counsel and ask them whether they want to dismiss the action or run up attorney fees, but do it friendly-like.
