?Service of Process? is the way you deliver court papers to the person required to respond to them. This person is called the ?defendant.? You must tell the defendant, in writing: there is a case, what the case is about, what the defendant must do, if there is a court hearing, and when and where to come to court.
For successful service on a defendant who is a person, the sheriff or constable must personally hand a copy of the summons and complaint to the defendant, leave the copies at the defendant's last and usual place of abode (last known residence), or deliver the copies to an agent authorized to receive service of process ...
Under Rule 5(b), service may be made by mailing the paper to the party or attorney at his last known address; if no address is known, the paper may be left with the clerk of court. Prior Massachusetts practice made no provision in cases where the address was unknown. Notice must be written.
A certificate of service lets the court know that you sent a copy of the form you're filing to certain additional parties, such as the trustee or a specific creditor. It is often included at the end of the form, but it can also be filed as a separate form.
(b) Service - How made. - A pleading setting forth a counterclaim or cross claim shall be filed with the court and a copy thereof shall be served on the party against whom it is asserted or on the party's attorney of record as provided by this subsection.
