Sheriff or Private Process Server in Honolulu County
On who may serve, HRCP Rule 4(c) is broad. The sheriff or a deputy can serve; so can a person specially appointed by the court; so can any person who is at least 18 and not a party; and in any county the chief of police or an authorized subordinate can too. A private server is covered.
Who May Serve and How: HRCP Rule 4 in West Loch Estate
West Loch Estate is in the First Circuit, so Rule 4(d)(1) controls service on a person. The summons and complaint can be delivered to the person, or left with someone of suitable age and discretion at the dwelling house or usual place of abode if the person cannot be found, or delivered to an agent authorized by appointment or law. A front desk or a guard is not included. When the defendant is an organization, Rule 4(d)(3) names an officer, a managing or general agent, or another authorized agent.
Whoever serves must then report to the court: Rule 4(g) calls for proof of service promptly and within the response period. In most cases Rule 12(a)(1) gives the defendant 20 days after service to answer, unless a statute or court order sets a different time. We did not find a completion deadline in the Rule 4 text.
