Hi everyone! I'm writing to you from Michigan.
I wrote on this forum last year (see post #1 and post #2) regarding a lawsuit with (example) ABC Company. I was hired by the founder, (example) Jane Doe, to work on a project (that she did through a partnership with XYZ Company) but I never got paid.
I've filed a lawsuit but no one showed up to court. I filed it a second time and no one came. I'm now on my third attempt...and I'm trying my damndest to be successful this time!
Here's my question: I just learned through her social media that she moved out of state a few months ago (not sure where yet), and that she's exited the company. So:

Here's my question: I just learned through her social media that she moved out of state a few months ago (not sure where yet), and that she's exited the company. So:
- Can I still sue ABC Company? I worked on behalf of the company, but I only dealt with Jane Doe. Would the company itself still be liable?
- Do I need to go after Jane Doe herself? I originally did not list her on the lawsuit because the company is an LLC and that gave her some sort of protection. I've searched LARA (Michigan Licensing And Regulatory Affairs) for updated articles of incorporation, etc. and I did not see any changes to the business structure....she's still listed on the business docs (however, the most recent articles of incorporation, etc. are from 2022).
- What next steps should I take?
- How can I find her most recent corporation info from 2023?
- Do I need to find her new home address?
- How can I find her business address if that's changed (one building appears to be vacant)?
- Do I need to keep reaching out to her or someone else now?
- Should I contact the partner company, XYZ? Do I need to include them on the lawsuit too?
