What is the test for a motion to set aside a default judgment?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Robinson & Wisbaum, Inc. v. Smith, G049562 (Cal. App. 2015):
Smith did not bring her motion to set aside the default judgment within six months after it was entered. She is not entitled to relief under the statute. "Once six months have elapsed since the entry of a judgment, 'a trial court may grant a motion to set aside that judgment as void only if the judgment is void on its face.' [Citation.]" (Cruz v. Fagor America, Inc. (2007) 146 Cal.App.4th 488, 496.)
