Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

Serving someone in a different county

I live 400 miles away from where my step-mother filed a petition. I need to serve her and her attorney a ''request for special notice''. Do I need to find someone to mail the papers who lives or works in the county where the petition was filed, or can someone from MY county sign the ''proof of service by mail''?

Re: Serving someone in a different county

You can have someone form your county sign. In which county people reside or the action is filed normally only creates a problem for the Plaintiff in that s different county may lack jurisdiction [or it is improper venue] over you. But a non-plaintiff can always give up that argument and accept jurisdiction.
