On motion and just terms, the court may relieve a party or its legal representative from a final judgment, order, or proceeding for the following reasons: (1) mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect; (2) newly discovered evidence that, with reasonable diligence, could not have been discovered in time to ...
Under Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.540, a person can seek relief from a default judgment for the following reasons: mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect. newly discovered evidence which by due diligence could not have been discovered in time to move for a new trial or rehearing.
A common summary of the rules for setting aside (excusing) a default is frequently quoted by Florida appellate courts: A party attempting to set aside a clerk's default must demonstrate excusable neglect, a meritorious defense, and due diligence in order for the trial court to vacate the default.
Excusable neglect is a term associated with proceedings, notably in bankruptcy cases, that includes inadvertence, mistake, carelessness, or any intervening circumstances beyond a party's control. A court has the direction to allow a party to file a motion after the deadline if it finds excusable neglect.
Is there any way for you to defend the case? The effect of the entry of a default either by the clerk or by the court is that the defaulted party can no longer participate in the case, other than by filing a motion to set aside the default, which I will cover in another blog post.

After filing a motion for default, you will get a hearing date and time from the court clerk. Although it is not a guarantee that the motion will be accepted, you at least will have a chance. At the hearing, the judge will decide to grant or deny the motion.
To persuade the court to set aside the judgment you will need to clearly show that you have a real prospect of successfully defending the claim. The statement accompanying the application is your chance to explain why the judgment should be set aside. Include a draft of your proposed defence to the action.
In almost every case after a default is entered, the plaintiff will submit affidavits and a proposed judgment to the court and the court will then enter the judgment without the requirement that any hearings be held. Some times this is NOT the procedure that should have been followed.
A default judgment cannot be directly appealed. A defendant must file a motion to set aside the judgment and then appeal from the court's ruling on that motion.
What is a set aside application? A defendant who has a default judgment against them can apply to the court that issued the judgment to set it aside. If the court sets aside the judgment, it is as though the order was never made. The court still needs to deal with the claim.
