p0443 Since the monetary relief available on a default judgment in a partition action is limited to the specific dollar amount requested in the complaint, a request for half the common expenses in a specified amount, the costs of partition, reimbursement of sums advanced, and general and special damages to be proven at the time of trial was not sufficient to justify a default judgment in excess of half the amount specified as common expenses.CitationFINNEY v GOMEZ (Default Judgment) 111 CA4 527 [See: CCP 580; Greenup v Rodman 42 C3 822; In re Lippel 51 C3 1160]
