Judgment debtor may defend - Default judgments The judgment debtor may defend any such action on the judgment debtor's own behalf and has recourse to all appropriate means of defense and review, including examination of witnesses. Whenever an applicant's judgment is by default, stipulation, or consent, or whenever the action against the licensee was defended by a trustee in bankruptcy, the applicant has the burden of proving any claim for relief for fraudulent, deceptive, or dishonest practices, or conversion of trust funds. Otherwise, the judgment creates a rebuttable presumption of the fraudulent, deceptive, or dishonest practices, or conversion of trust funds. This presumption is a presumption affecting the burden of producing evidence.
