How do I serve papers to someone outside the US with no known address?
I filed a full custody of my daughter, we lived in California. The father is from Germany and he left the country in 2008 and never returned, call and send child support. The last time I got hold of him was a year ago he was still in Taiwan at that time, he called me because I was able to contact his mom. I told him that I am sending him papers serving him for full custody. I told him that I am going to send the papers at my friends house and gave him the full information. WHen the documents arrived, we waited for a month but he didn't show up. I tried to file for default since he didn't respond back and seems not to care. Right now, I don't have any idea where he is at. His mother changed thier number in Germany so, I don't know where to get hold of him. The office told me I have to serve him again wherever he is. But I dont know where he is right now and I don't know what to do. Is there any way I can have this process going without starting from the scratch?Without serving him again? HIs case was abandonment. Can you advice please whats the best thing to do? My email address is ncayanan@gmail.comThanksNieka
