with that many documented attempts, a judge will likely sign-off on whatever alternative means of service that jurisdiction has… like usps or legal notice in newspapers (yes, they’re still used for some things).
Especially with him openly bragging about avoiding the court… He clearly knows about the suit; physically handing him the paperwork is an unnecessary formality at this point.
Genuine question: If he didn’t know about the suit and was actually a hermit with no communication with family, could someone actually hide their way out of something like this?
Depends on the country… in the UK for example you can serve on a last known address, and this is presumed served unless later rebutted in court… it is for the court to decide if the rebuttal is sufficiently demonstrated or not.
