      If he’s been served it will have been documented, the court won’t have proceeded with the case if they don’t think the person named in the case has been served, so the fact that he didn’t turn up to court means he must have been served otherwise they wouldn’t have had the trial yet.

        the court won’t have proceeded with the case if they don’t think the person named in the case has been served,

        Fun fact, the case did not proceed they’re specifically asking for it to.

        so the fact that he didn’t turn up to court means he must have been served otherwise they wouldn’t have had the trial yet.

        No, the date proceeds unless the court says otherwise even if it’s simply to show up and say they don’t have service yet.

        Y’all really don’t have any civil court experience do you?
