What happens after I file my answer to the foreclosure complaint?

Answers are reviewed to determine whether the answer is contesting or non-contesting. If the answer is determined to be contesting it is transferred to the General Equity judge in the county of venue (the county in which the foreclosed property is located). If the Defendant's answer is deemed non-contesting, the foreclosure action will continue, with the Plaintiff's attorney taking the steps necessary to seek a final foreclosure judgment.
