MOTION by Plaintiff Bell Sports, Inc. Plaintiff's Motion to Direct the Clerk of the Court to Issue a Summons

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Martha M. Pacold: Plaintiff's motion 17 for electronic service of process is granted. While a preferable means of service, the court is cognizant of the fact that physical service is not always possible. In this case, Plaintiff certifies that it has attempted, but has been unable, to obtain a physical address for defendant. See id.; 19. In such a circumstance, a less preferable form of service is permissible. Service via email is "reasonably calculated" to be received by defendant, and it is thus adequate in this case. Mullane v. Cent. Hanover Bank & Tr. Co., 339 U.S 306, 319 (1950). What's more, service via email is not barred under Fed. R. Civ. P. 4. Thus, plaintiff may serve process via email. Mailed notice.
