“Service by publication” means that you publish the Summons or other document in a newspaper of general circulation in the area where your spouse or partner is likely to be located. For the publication service, you will have to pay the newspaper a fee to publish the document. It should be published for 4 weeks in a row, at least once a week.
“Service by publication” means that your process server, or the court clerk (based on court procedures), places the Summons or other document in a conspicuous place designated for court service in the courthouse. To serve by publication, you must qualify for a waiver of court fees.
To get permission from the court to serve by publication or by mail, you will need to show the court that you did everything possible to find your spouse or partner. Lantigua Solution can help you.
