    When a 3 day notice is served is there a response form to be filed ?
    Once the 3 day has been received is there a response form to be filed or is it after the judge grants landlord notice of default filing?

    How to answer a notice of default properly
    What are the reasons required to delay n.o.default action? Does finanacially disraught qualify? Need time to prove other legal findings relavent.

    No.

    The 3-day notice is served before a lawsuit is instituted.

    I'm not sure if you know what you are asking when you ask about the judge granting a "notice of default filing". Normally court actions for eviction do not include a default. But if the tenant fails to answer within the prescribed period (normally 20 days), In theory the landlord can get the clerk of court to enter a default. In practice this wouldn't happen: the eviction hearing would take place long before then.

    This should be combined with the other thread on the subject.

    And this is giberish. Please re-phrase.

    The ONLY answer to a 3-day pay or quit notice is payment in full. If you do not pay in full, then the landlord files for an eviction order. This filing will result in a hearing, and you will be served a summons notifying you of the hearing. Poverty (financially distraught) is not a defense. The best you can hope for is a little more time to find someplace else to move to. And you will still owe the landlord for whatever time you occupy the premises.
