Who May Serve and How: HRCP Rule 4 in Waihee-Waiehu
Cases from Waihee-Waiehu go to the Second Circuit, where Rule 4(d)(1) controls service on an individual. Personal delivery of the summons and complaint works. So does leaving them at the dwelling house or usual place of abode with someone of suitable age and discretion who resides there, if the person cannot be found. So does delivery to an agent authorized by appointment or law. A neighbor or landlord does not qualify on that basis.
Companies are served under Rule 4(d)(3) through an officer, a managing or general agent, or another authorized agent, and Maui County is served through its corporation counsel or county attorney, or as its charter or a statute provides. The server proves service to the court under Rule 4(g), promptly and in any event within the response time. An answer is generally due 20 days after service under Rule 12(a)(1), unless a statute or court order sets another time. Rule 4 as we checked it has no outer limit for completing service.
