I've got a default opened where:
1. I simply missed the deadline; and
2. Discovered while in court on a motion to open that I had not been admitted to that District yet (when I told the Judge, "Yes I have. I second chaired a trial here last year" I thought he was going to jump the bench and attack me).
The standard favors opening the default in all but the most outrageous circumstances.
All that said, don't get defaulted in Fed Court. Clients and partners really hate it. Like,
really hate it.
