Missoula, MT asked in Appeals / Appellate Law for Montana

Q: When a person is supposed to be on antipsychotic medications and isn't taking them but is instead using illegal drugs

And a lawsuit is filed against them, they don't show up to court because they are out of their mind and a judgment is placed against them, can they appeal now that they are sober and actually care about this no matter how long its been?? With doctors statements and later hospitalization and recovery? $4,500, about 2 years ago?
