MICHAEL B CAMERON

JUDGE HOPKINS

MINUTE ENTRY

Plaintiff has requested service by alternative means pursuant to Rule 4.1 of the Arizona
Rules of Civil Procedure. Rule 4.1 (k) provides as follows:

(k) Alternative Means of Service.

(1) Generally.

If a party shows that the means of service provided in Rule 4.1(c) through Rule 4.1(j) are
impracticable, the court may--on motion and without notice to the person to be served--order that
service may be accomplished in another manner.

(2) Notice and Mailing. If the court allows an alternative means of service, the serving
party must make a reasonable effort to provide the person being served with actual notice of the
action's commencement. In any event, the serving party must mail the summons, the pleading
being served, and any court order authorizing an alternative means of service to the last-known
business or residential address of the person being served.

(3) Service by Publication. A party may serve by publication only if the requirements of
Rule 4.1(l), 4.1(m), 4.2(f), or 4.2(g) are met and the procedures provided in those rules are
followed.

Whether traditional service is “impractical,” defined as “extremely difficult or
inconvenient” is a fact specific inquiry. See Blair v. Burgener, 226 Ariz. 213, 245 P.3d 898
(App. 2010. The Court finds in this case that personal is impractical.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED authorizing Plaintiff to serve Defendants at
Defendants’ last known place of abode by posting this Order as well as the Summons and
Complaint and any other related papers on the front door of Defendants’ last known residence
address or on the front gate of Defendants’ property if unable to gain access to the front door.1

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff shall also mail this Order as well as the
Summons and Complaint and any other related papers by regular first class mail as provided in
Rule 4.1 (k) of the Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff shall also e-mail this Order as well as the
Summons and Complaint and any other related papers to Defendants at any e-mail address
believed by Plaintiff to be associated with Defendants.2

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED extending the time to complete service to January 11,
2022.

The Court has granted an extension of time for Plaintiff to serve the Complaint and
accompanying documents in this case which supersedes the original time computation for
dismissal on the Inactive Calendar. Therefore,

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED placing this case on the Inactive Calendar for
dismissal without further notice on January 12, 2022 unless an Affidavit of Service of Process is

1 All of the orders for service shall be in addition to what has already been done, i.e., even if the
Complaint was mailed before it must be mailed again, with a copy of this Order.
2 See generally Baidoo v. Blood-Dzraku, 48 Misc. 3d 309, 310 (N.Y. Sup. Ct. 2015) (discussing
service via e-mail or Facebook as supplemental methods of providing actual notice to a
defendant of a pending legal proceeding); see also generally Solving Sewer Service: Fighting
Fraud With Technology, Arkansas Law Review, Vol. 70, number 4 (2018); “Hacking” Service
of Process: Using Social Media to Provide Constitutionally Sufficient Notice of Process, 38 U.
Ark. Little Rock L. Rev. 559 (2016).
