Legal Question in Family Law in Mississippi
Who can legally deliver a supeona
I was told that anyone could deliver a supeona if he was willing to sign his name and attest that he delivered the supeona as long as his name did not appear on the complaint.

Re: Who can legally deliver a supeona
Generally, process service should only be made by a party that has no interest in the case.
M. R. C. P. RULE 4.(c)SUMMONS
(1) By Process Server. A summons and complaint shall, except as provided in subparagraphs (2) and (4) of this subdivision, be served by any person who is not a party and is not less than 18 years of age. When a summons and complaint are served by process server, an amount not exceeding that statutorily allowed to the sheriff for service of process may be taxed as recoverable costs in the action.
