Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the challenge to the default judgment could be admitted despite alleged defects in international service.
Decisione estratta
The grievance was inadmissible because the original summons had been validly served and no reason existed to suspend proceedings under the Hague Service Convention.
Motivazione estratta
The applicants had been informed of the proceedings in 2002, the subsequent inability to serve later summonses was due to a change of address, and they failed to attack the cantonal court's decisive reasoning that service had to be assessed against the introductory pleading, not later procedural acts.
