Practice question
A proof states that 'papers were delivered at the address' but omits the manner and date of service, does not identify the recipient and fails to specify what accompanied summons. The plaintiff says the server's signature alone supplies every detail. Which is correct?
- A signature alone conclusively establishes every omitted fact.
- The proof omits particulars expressly required by §21 and must be evaluated for compliance rather than treated as complete.
- Any address automatically proves delivery to the defendant.
- Proof of service is identical to a judgment on the merits.
- The omissions are required to protect confidentiality.
