Service of Process Statutory Interpretation and Default Judgment
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe matter concerns a challenge to the application of a statutory provision regarding service of process where the trial court denied a motion to set aside a default judgment, relying on prior decisions that had interpreted the provision to require actual knowledge of the action. The appellate court reversed the denial, reasoning that the subsequent amendment to the relevant statute, which altered the statutory language, signaled a legislative intent to change the prior interpretation, making the prior case law inapplicable; thus, the current statute, focusing on the manner of service rather than actual knowledge, was controlling, and the trial court erred in applying the former standard to deny the motion.
