Re: summons

Yes, and yes. If the person served is an adult occupant of the residence, then the server has to mail a copy of the summons and the complaint to the defendant at the same address, as well. The same is true at a business address - the person served has to be the person apparently in charge of the office, and a copy must be mailed to the defendant at the business address, as well.
