Florida Waiver of Service of Process is a legal document that allows a defendant to waive the right to be formally served with a summons. This is commonly used when a defendant lives outside of Florida and is difficult to locate. It allows the defendant to admit they have received the summons and agree to the terms of the legal proceedings. There are two types of Florida Waiver of Service of Process: Waiver of Service of Summons and Waiver of Service of Complaint. Waiver of Service of Summons is used when a defendant must be served with a summons, but they live outside of Florida or are difficult to locate. The defendant must sign and return the document, which legally acknowledges they have received the summons. Waiver of Service of Complaint is used when a defendant is served with a complaint, but they live outside of Florida or are difficult to locate. The defendant must sign and return the document, which legally acknowledges they have received the complaint.
