Motifs extraits
After a process relationship is established, parties must ensure valid service at the address provided. If service is impossible, deemed service applies. The 12 January 2010 notice was sent to both counsel and the appellant personally; the mail to the appellant returned undelivered because the mailbox had not been emptied. The advance was never paid.
