Practice question: Entity without Juridical Personality

Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

A creditor serves an unrelated visitor at a shop next door to the nonjuridical group’s office. The visitor is neither an associated defendant nor in charge of the group’s maintained office. The creditor invokes Section7 solely because the visitor was nearby. Which is best?
  1. Proximity makes every person an authorized recipient
  2. Any commercial district counts as one office
  3. The visitor becomes a member upon receiving papers
  4. Those facts do not establish a Section7 recipient; the identified relationship must actually exist
  5. The visitor may confer jurisdiction by keeping the papers
