DEFAULT JUDGEMENT:

Definition: If you are sued and do not file papers in response to the lawsuit in the prescribed time limit, the plaintiff (person who sued you) can ask the court to enter a judgement against you. A default judgement against you is an automatic loss of the case for you. Sometimes a default judgement can be set aside but this is unusual and circumstances must be notable to justify such a turn.

default judgment / petition of the complaint


Explanation:
Ref. for \"default judgment\" - West\'s Law & Comm. Dic.


I think \"remedio\" is not adequately used in Spanish. Anyhow, in English I would put \"granting the petition of the complaint\".
