Congratulations on winning the race to the courthouse, but they will be able to get the default set aside. When they call you and ask you to stipulate to set aside the default, say yes or you're just going to waste the judge's time.

If they filed a demurrer within the 30-days that is the same as if they filed an answer, in which case your default is no good.
