Oregon Motion For Order To Allow Alternative Form of Service (6A) is a document filed with the court requesting permission to serve a summons and complaint on a defendant differently than the standard in-person service. The motion must include a proposed alternative form of service, as well as an explanation of why the standard form of service is not practicable. There are three types of Oregon Motion For Order To Allow Alternative Form of Service (6A): personal service, service by mail, and service by publication. Personal service is a direct delivery of summons and complaint to the defendant, either in person or through a third party. Service by mail involves sending the summons and complaint to the defendant by certified mail or registered mail. Service by publication involves publishing the summons and complaint in a newspaper in the county where the defendant is located. The court will consider the motion and make a ruling on whether the alternative form of service is appropriate or not. If granted, the alternative form of service will be allowed and the plaintiff can proceed with serving the defendant accordingly.
