JUDICIAL/COURT PROCESS SERVICE.
Process service refers to the legal procedure of officially delivering or serving court documents, such as summons, plaints and court orders to a person involved in a legal case.
This ensures the recipient is aware of the legal action against them and has an opportunity to respond.
PURPOSE:
- Notice and Due Process:
Process service is a fundamental aspect of due process, guaranteeing that individuals are properly notified of legal proceedings and have a chance to defend themselves.
- Formal Delivery:
It ensures that documents are delivered in a legally recognized manner, through a couy process server, rather than relying on informal methods.
- Proof of Service:
Process servers provide official documentation, such as an affidavit of service, to prove that the documents were delivered to the intended recipient.
