Rule 5.407.Review of default and uncontested judgments submitted on the basis of declaration under Family Code section 2336

Once a valid proof of service is on file or the respondent has generally appeared, the court must conduct a procedural review of everything submitted for a default or uncontested judgment under the declaration procedure — and notify the attorneys or self-represented litigants who submitted them of all identified defects.

The second subdivision keeps the notification useful. Basic information for correcting the defects must be included, so a self-represented litigant learns what to do rather than only that something is wrong.
