17. Wrong. She did not "physically refuse service." It appears she did not even notice the douchebag.

The process server Dellaporte basically admitted that:

 “She did not acknowledge me and kept walking inside the venue, and she had no expression on her face.”

Then the dumbshit Dellaporte throws the papers on the ground "at her feet" as she's walking away. In a crowd. In front of a bar. At a movie premiere. No, that is not good service.

And there is no video. The dumbshit just took a PHOTO. And all the photo shows apparently is her walking away, with the papers on the ground. Per the article: "In their filing, they included a photo they said DellaPorte took of Daniels as she strode away." Pretty suspicious of him to only include a photo and not a video. Does his phone not have a video function? That photo of her walking away does not prove service. That's why process servers stake out a person's home and catch people as they're walking out or pulling their car out, where they can't claim they didn't see them.

But even if that bullshit attempt at service is sufficient, it should go nowhere. As also noted in the article:

Earlier this month, Merchan blocked an attempt by Trump to subpoena NBC Universal for information related to the documentary. He wrote that subpoena and the demands therein “are the very definition of a fishing expedition.”
She can make an argument of "incomplete service". no_hypocrisy Apr 18 #1

Because they expected delays due to motions pre jury selection, and then further delays Prairie Gates Apr 18 #11
Very good point. LiberalFighter Apr 18 #30
...Trump's lawyers are asking Judge Juan M. Merchan to force Daniels to comply with the subpoena. riversedge Apr 18 #8
As jury selection proceeds unfettered, they come up with other delay tactics Prairie Gates Apr 18 #9
This judge has likely had it with tsf waiting till beyond the last minute to raise these issues... getagrip_already Apr 18 #10
If the issue were valid couldn't they deliver the papers to her lawyer? We've seen that they do not play by the rules Ford_Prefect Apr 18 #12
Why serve her with a subpoena? What's the purpose, other than to intimidate her? FakeNoose Apr 18 #14

No. The rules can get complicated and there are lots of links. I just voiced my opinion based on what I read. Joinfortmill Apr 18 #36
