Life How to get someone served? - Page 3

As it turns out, getting someone served is more of an uphill challenge than I would have expected.

Apparently in counties that will serve a fair number of people on an average day, they will attempt to serve a person twice, then give up if unsuccessful. At this point, they are supposed to return papers to the originating county, but apparently that's too much work as well...they haven't done that yet either, and the service was attemped a month ago.

So that leads to my question. Is there another way?

I called my local county court to get a status update, and they had not received anything from the serving county, and gave me a number for them to see if I could find anything out. So I called, they said they tried twice, could not catch the guy, and gave up. But they still had not returned papers to my county saying they couldn't serve him. And why couldn't they serve him? Well, they tried twice, around noon-ish, at his home during a weekday. The guy works. I ask if it can be done after 5 and that's not even an option. Apparently if its not 8-5, they just won't do it at all. The lady was actually kind of rude and completely unwilling to even give any advice.

So if you have the guys current address, but he's not going to be there during the work day, and you have a county dept that really won't do anything other than the bare minimum to serve him....how in the hell does he get served? Are there other ways?

My local county clerk told me if the person was married, that if his wife was home, that would be as good as having him served. But apparently that didn't happen either. So, I'm kind of at a loss. Anybody have any ideas?

I worked in the part of the government that serves people. People would be calling all day all pissed that we couldn't serve people and what not. While people were bitching we would lay the phone down roll our eyes and do the jack off motion with our hands. Most of the times we would just search the web with phones and do nothing because it is an 8-5 job. The only way I would take a job is if it is 8-5 and everyone knows me knows I don't work a minute after 5. So lets of times I would roll up to the guys house or gals but it was usually men who are doing the stupid shit. I would be hungover and or high and I would take a giant gulp of coffe syrup before rolling up on a place. I would text people on my way to the door. I would knock as quietly as possible. So I didn't have to look at the persons face, then when they wouldn't answer I would leave. If I saw a car was home or that there was a light on and that I would possibly have to go face to face with someone I usually went on past and played some video games at powerplay. It was a pretty good gig. After I quit I found lots of old papers in my trunk. Hope this helps.

I think I served someone through certified mail once, which required a signature.
