So basically the court date is me showing that I did file an answer with the court and then we will move from there?

I did a general denial of all allegations

Yes I have a stamped copy that I filed with the court and I did deny the allegations. I did not send a copy to the plaintiff. I thought it would be the court or plaintiffs duty to do that.

Hmmmm well this seems to be weird. I know for a fact I responded in time. What should I expect from this type of hearing? What should I be prepared to object to? Also its hard to tell, but it looks like the lawyer didn't show for his last case in my area so maybe he won't show for mine.

Absolutely positive. The paper i received says this A hearing on Plaintiff's Motion for Default Judgment on the above case has been set on 19th day of December, 2013 at 11 a.m. in the court of ... As Plaintiff, failure to appear for this court setting will result in dismissal of this case. As Defendant, failure to appear for this court setting will result in a default judgment in favor of the plaintiff.

I haven't had a judgement against me. This is why I'm confused about why we are having a hearing. I understand that they could still admit a default judgement so is that basically what this type of hearing is?

So I have a hearing on Plaintiff's Motion for Default Judgment on Thursday. What should I expect from this? Looking back it seems I probably should have got a lawyer to help me out, but seeing as I didn't what could i expect from this type of hearing and how best can I prepare for it?

I filed an answer and will be filing a request for disclosure later this week. Anyone know what is next. Do I just sit around and wait?
