What happened

The association filed an action against Dawna M. Greene and a trust-related defendant. The collected minute entries do not include the complaint, assessment ledger, or formal judgment text.

In April 2022, the court received the association’s default application and routed default proceedings to Commissioner Richard Albrecht. The court later set a default hearing and approved a formal written order related to that setting.

No one appeared at the first default hearing on June 15, 2022, so the court vacated that hearing. After the association filed another motion to set a default hearing, a second default hearing was set for July 28, 2022.

At the July 28 hearing, counsel appeared for the association, and Dawna M. Greene did not appear. The court ordered the association to lodge a proposed judgment and granted default judgment subject to review of that proposed judgment.

On August 2, 2022, the court approved and settled the formal written Judgment and Decree of Foreclosure and Order of Sale signed the prior day.
