How would I go about enforcing a case that is owed arrears, but children are adults and no longer receive regular support? Non Custodial parent owes about $28,000.
It's crazy that mail can be used for service. The amount of mistakes, lost, and stolen mail I've seen tells me that it's not a reliable way to send anything important.
I’m speaking not as Lassen DCSS right now but as a private individual, I can’t tell you how many problems I’ve had with the mail. I’ve got quite a list. Fortunately, the Courts are pretty good about granting relief when a person files a motion alleging they never got the documents that were served on them. Or, when the person finds out they were served by mail but didn’t get the documents before the hearing happens, the Courts are pretty good about allowing extra time to respond when the person comes to court and tells the Court what happened. Generally, service by mail is only allowed after the defendant is first personally served at the beginning of the case. So, at that point the person knows about the legal matter. Also, generally, after judgement is entered and a new motion is filed, the person who didn’t file the motion must either personally serve the other parties with his/her motion after judgement or must certify that they verified the address of the other parties, that being the address that the other parties were served at. So, the legislature and the court figure there are safeguards in place to allow for service by mail.
Can the person that is mailing the document put my address as the return address on the envelope? If so, can they put my address is section 2. My residence or business address is: ?
The address of the person completing the service must be put in section 2 of the Proof of Service by Mail. If the person completing the service has the same address as you, then the address in section 2 may be the same as your address. I see no reason why your address can't be used as the return address on the envelope. Certainly, you would want to know as soon as possible if the documents were returned so you could fix any service problems. Sometimes the Court wants to know if the documents were returned in the mail. If a disinterested non-party has to serve the documents, an argument could be made that the disinterested non-party's answer about whether the documents were returned or not would be more reliable than your answer. If there are any questions about your reliability (either by the Court or brought up by the other party), you may want the address of the person who completed the service to appear on the return address section of the envelope. You would then need that person to let you know if the documents were returned or not. Ultimately, this is a strategic decision that each party and their attorney must make for themselves and I cannot advise you which decision to make about the return address.

My question is if I
I send a doc on certified mail I’m supposed to keep the original that the server signed and give the other party just a copy?

Your local child support agency can help you enforce it.
