Unlawful Detainer Process- California
Good morning,
I did the unlawful detainer process several years ago, but I can't remember the exact process.
I submitted the summons and complaint. They failed to respond. I went to court and was advised to file a Request for Entry of Default and Proof of Service of mailing.
1) Do I file the Request for Entry of Default and mail later? Or do I send the Request for Entry of Default without being file with the court?
2) When I file the Request for Entry of Default can I immediately seek to obtain the Judgement- unlawful detainer and Writ of Possession?
Thanks for the help.
