Just requesting a default judgment doesn't mean anything. You have the steps for it wrong Ming.
I request one for every single unlawful detainer I file because:
IF the tenant is a no show in court,
THEN I win the default judgment and can begin the eviction process more formally.
or
IF the tenant shows up in court
THEN we proceed with the trial as normal and the request for a default judgment gets tossed.
Someone like Lucille can correct me if it is different in other areas of law.
