Proper service of the complaint is a requirement for a law suit. And most states require that the suit be served in person, often by a process server or a member of the sheriff's office in the county where you live. LA County Sheriff's office isn't going to go all the way to Boston to serve a law suit for a civil action. If proper service is not done, that is grounds for a judgment to… [cont.] Answered by Keith_dude - Wed Jul 2 22:05:55 2008 What can I expect from law firms letter to take action on old judgment?
