State and Fed Courts:
If summons service was not done right, and I say so in a motion, can the plaintiff resend the summons the right way? and effect correct service? are there any time limit restrictions from the original filing date? (thought i read somewhere about 120 days, but not sure if that is original or re-service)
or would the judge dismiss, and they have to refile or could they just re-send the summons to correct it before the judge rules on the motion?
also there was a mis-spelling of my name, can they change that easily? if so how?
thanks for the answers!
