Act 23: Request for Default Denied!

WHEW!!!

Ever since I learned that Ms. Greenberg had filed a request for a default judgment, I've been afraid that I had screwed up so badly by not answering the Complaint that I had already lost the case. You can't imagine how relieved I was to find out that the case is still alive.

The strange thing is that I needn't have been so worried all that time. It turns out that the clerk denied Ms. Greenberg's request on October 16, 2001 – which I believe was probably the same day on which he received it. But for some reason, according to the postmark, the denial notice was not actually mailed to me until October 22, six days later! I received it on October 24, more than a week after it was entered. During that time, I actually filed two separate motions opposing the default request – which had probably already been denied before I even wrote the first one. (Oh well, I needed the practice...)

Anyway, here's what I found when I opened my mail.
