Only one problem with that story.I can understand how it looks like that, but all I can say is that's not the case. I had first planned to drop son off and have a friend there to serve him. I knew that my expedited listing didn't mean I could say I didn't have to send him. It wasn't until roads were being closed and reports were calling for more flooding Thursday into Friday that i realized that it may not be a good idea to make the trip.
Not going actually fudged up my 'set up'. I am actually upset that I didn't drop him off because, now I probably have to pay a personal server to get him served. He's hard to pin down. It would have worked out a lot better for me if I did drop him off because I would know for sure where he was and get him served.
I know that you seniors have heard just about everything and I can understand the cynicism. I've posting here long enough to know that it's pointless to lie or bend the truth to favor me because you guys/gals are like bloodhounds and can sniff the bull$ out in a heartbeat I promise, that is a compliment.
If you were planning to have a friend serve him when you dropped off the child (aside from that being very bad from a parenting standpoint), then the paperwork would have been with you. You said your brother tried to serve him - which means that your brother must have had the paperwork before the storm hit.
I don't think we're getting the full story.
