Serving of Summons and Complaint
The Plaintiff has filed a lawsuit in the superior court against four defendants and served the summons and the complaint by first class mail. I am one of the defendants.
Based on CA Code of Civil Procedure, didn�t the Plaintiff have to serve the summons and the complaint on the defendants by personal service v. by mail?
If so, can I raise this issue with the court?
Thank you for your advice.

Sure, if properly done by a motion to quash. Or, you could wait to be served a notice of default and then try to set it aside [not a bright idea]. Either way, if this is a case seeking substantial money, you should consider hiring counsel to make sure your defenses are asserted effectively, to avoid losing the case unnecessarily. Feel free to contact me if serious about getting counsel, and the case is in SoCal.
