Answer:

After being served with a summons and a copy of the complaint, one is expected to answer to these summons. After this, it is advised one goes to the court house and file it with the court. Ensure a copy of your answers are sent to the plaintiff. Answering summons on time gives one an edge and thus, the plaintiff would not be able to request a default judgment.
