Spanish term or phrase: acuse de rebeldía/ non appearence to trial entry.?
Could not find a legal term in both of my law dictionarys. I am searching for the Mex-legalese "Se acusa Rebeldia"

Looked up for the action word to put someone as defaulting or as non appearing to trial after being duly served of process. has beeb a little hard for me and I have reviewed words like "accuse", impeach, denounce, none of which are applicable for the legaleses I am looking for. Got tired and Finally came up with this:

"Non-appearence to trial entered/entry Default of the defendant entered/entry."

What is wrong?

non native as you may know by my language and grammars.

acknowlegement of contempt


Explanation:
"acuse de recibo" is "acknowledgement of recëipt"

and "rebeldía" is "contempt"

My understanding of "contempt" is the following:

3.
Law .
a.
willful disobedience to or open disrespect for the rules or orders of a court (contempt of court) or legislative body.

Since the person was duly served, if he intentionally disrepsected the Court's (Judge's) order, that is contempt.

Notes to answerer
Asker: THANK YOU MIKE, BUT DID YOU FULLY UNDERSTOOD WHAT I JUST EXPLAINED? I MEAN, I AM NOT A NATIVE AND MY ENGLISH IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH AND THOUGH SUCH FORMULA YOU GAVE ME HAS BEEN IN MY MIND FOR OTHER PROCEDURES, NOW IT LOOKS SO CORRECT , I HAD IT ALL ALONG WITH ME, YOU ARE CORRECT, WITH THIS SIMPLE WAY OF SAYING IT. I UNDERSTAND "CONTEMPT" IS FOR BAD BEHAVIOR IN COURT TOO? WHICH IS NOT THE CASE, SO CAN IT BE USED FOR NON APPEARING IN COURT TOO? I AM CLEAR WITH "ACKNOWLEDGEMENT".

disagree  AllegroTrans: since when has simple failure to appear been contempt? come on....///nothing in the asker's question suggests that contempt of Court is relevant here and failure to attend is NOT contempt - look it up
20 hrs
  -> If he is compelled by the judge to appear, and intentionally does not appear, that is contempt.

yep! this is what I was looking for. Rich's answer is good enough for me too, just as well as Sandro Tomasi's summary of reference answer.
Notes to answerer
Asker: it looks one thing: everybody thought of two situations: A) a final judgment with one of the litigants "default" throughout the whole trial, and b)another thing its the moment of entry of a motion of default/record of failure to appear ( to answer lawsuit or counterclaim it) filed by the plaintiff. In Mexico we just need to name it as you did, without the need of mentioning of "judgment default" or anything further. The judge will mention it at final judgment. We just apply by entering a motion soliciting to be recorded or acknowleged the failure of the defendant to appear answering to the first petition of trial ... I hope this clears ot even more, Saludos!

Request for Entry of Default Judgment

A Request for Entry of Default Judgment may be filed by a plaintiff who wishes the Court to enter a Default Judgment. Default Judgments may be entered by the Clerk or a Judge if certain criteria has been met. The plaintiff must e-file a Request for Entry of Default previous to e-filing a Request for Entry of Default Judgment. It is not necessary to wait for the Court to enter an Entry of Default before filing the Request for Entry of Default Judgment (the Request for Entry of Default and Request for Entry of Default Judgment may be e-filed one after the other).

  -> thanks Sandro

neutral  AllegroTrans: I rather think that could be the subsequent step, but how do you know this is a money claim?

  -> I don't know. "Motion to charge failure to appear" is another option. Just suggestions!

acuse de rebeldía: motion to charge default of appearance, motion to charge failure to appear or defend a court action, motion for entry of default judgment, motion for default.”

Este año salió la segunda edición de la obra español-inglés de Becerra, y en 2009 salió su primera edición de la obra hermana, Diccionario de terminología jurídica norteamericana (inglés-español). Ambas obras son excelentes, e imprescindibles si uno trabaja con la terminología señalada en los títulos.
