The Arizona Affidavit Supporting Out-of-State Service is a sworn statement that is filed with the court when a party to a lawsuit is located outside of Arizona. It is used to attest to the reliability of out-of-state service of process and to establish the authority of an individual to receive service on behalf of the defendant. The affidavit is typically signed by an individual who has knowledge of the facts and is familiar with the rules of service of process. Types of Arizona Affidavit Supporting Out-of-State Service include: * Affidavit of Attempted Service: Used when a process server attempts to serve the defendant but is unsuccessful. * Affidavit of Substituted Service: Used when a process server is not able to serve the defendant directly, so service is made on a third party. * Affidavit of Residence: Used when a process server is not able to locate the defendant’s residence. * Affidavit of Mailing: Used when the process server mails the summons and complaint to the defendant. * Affidavit of Publication: Used when the process server is unable to locate the defendant, so the summons and complaint are published in a newspaper.
