IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

KINGVISION PAY-PER-VIEW, LTD. 

 Plaintiff, 

 v. 

MIGUEL ARROYO, an individual 

dba LA BOTANA SPORTS BAR, 

 Defendant. / 

No. Civ. S-04-2004 RRB KJM 

Memorandum of Opinion

and Order

Plaintiff Kingvision Pay-Per-View, Ltd. seeks an order 

authorizing a process server to levy execution pursuant to a 

default judgment against defendant Miguel Arroyo. Federal Rule 

of Civil Procedure 69(a) requires post-judgment enforcement 

proceedings to comply with state law. Credit Suisse v. U.S. 

Dist. Court for Cent. Dist. of California, 130 F.3d 1342, 1344 

(9th Cir. 1997). “Under California law, a registered process 

server may levy under a writ of attachment,” but only in cases 

when “the levy does not involve the possibility of taking 

immediate possession of the property.” Garden City Boxing Club, 

Inc. v. Aviles, No. 03-cv-6400, 2007 WL 1821466, at *1 (E.D. 

Cal. June 25, 2007) (discussing Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 699.080).

 Based upon documents submitted by plaintiff, the court 

finds that (1) DDS Legal Support System/VSC Attorney Service 

(“DDS Legal”) is a registered process server, authorized to 

perform services pursuant to California Civil Procedure Code § 

699.080; (2) plaintiff’s requested levy does not involve taking 

immediate possession of property; and (3) the interests of 

justice would be served by relieving the United States Marshall 

from effectuating collection of judgment in this action. 

 For these reasons, the court GRANTS plaintiff’s motion for 

authorization to employ DDS Legal to perform the duties and 

responsibilities of levying officer as defined under California 

Civil Procedure Code § 699.080. 

 ENTERED this 16th day of July, 2007.
