JUDGE MOSKOWITZ

MINUTE ENTRY

The Court has received and reviewed the Motion for an Order Allowing Service by
Publication filed March 12, 2025.

IT IS ORDERED denying this Motion without prejudice because it is not clear to the
Court that all the elements of serving an unknown heir in a real property action pursuant to Rule
4.1(m), Ariz. R. Civ. P. have been met. It is also not clear to the Court how a decedent can be
served by publication or otherwise. It would appear that a Special Representative would need to
be appointed in probate court to accept service on behalf of the decedent's estate and from there it
may become known about whether there exist any heirs.
