Re: Debt collection: repayment of loan
The small claims court/JP court usually supplies the information for arranging service of citation on a person who is out of state. If the person has zero ties to the state of Texas, however, in order to acquire personal jurisdiction you may have sue him in his jurisdiction, instead of yours.
