Civil Action No. CV-16-00277-PHX-DGC

WAIVER OF THE SERVICE OF SUMMONS

To: TorHoerman Law LLC

(Name of plaintiff’s attorney or unrepresented plaintiff)

I have received your request to waive service of a summons in this action along with a copy of the complaint, two 

copies of this waiver form, and a prepaid means of returning one signed copy of the form to you.

I, or the entity I represent, agree to save the expense of serving a summons and complaint in this case.

I understand that I, or the entity I represent, will keep all defenses or objections to the lawsuit, the court’s 

jurisdiction, and the venue of the action, but that I waive any objections to the absence of a summons or of service.

I also understand that I, or the entity I represent, must file and serve an answer or a motion under Rule 12 within 

60 days from 2/3/2016, the date when this request was sent (or 90 days if it was sent outside the United States). If I fail to 

do so, a default judgment will be entered against me or the entity I represent.

Duty to Avoid Unnecessary Expenses of Serving a Summons

Rule 4 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires certain defendants to cooperate in saving unnecessary expenses of serving a 

summons and complaint. A defendant who is located in the United States and who fails to return a signed waiver of service requested by a plaintiff 

located in the United States will be required to pay the expenses of service, unless the defendant shows good cause for the failure. 

“Good cause” does not include a belief that the lawsuit is groundless, or that it has been brought in an improper venue, or that the court has 

no jurisdiction over this matter or over the defendant or the defendant’s property. 

If the waiver is signed and returned, you can still make these and all other defenses and objections, but you cannot object to the absence of 

a summons or of service. 

If you waive service, then you must, within the time specified on the waiver form, serve an answer or a motion under Rule 12 on the 

plaintiff and file a copy with the court. By signing and returning the waiver form, you are allowed more time to respond than if a summons had been 

served.

No. 15,339.

#### Fiscus *v.*Guthrie.

Filed Oct. 7, 1890.

From the Decatur Circuit Court.

*J. S. Scobey,*for appellant.

*C. Ewing*and *J. K. Ewing,*for appellee.

Berkshire, C. J.

— This was an action to obtain a perpetual injunction. The facts as disclosed in the petition, shortly stated, are as follows:

The appellant was adjudged to be a person of unsound mind, under the provisions^ section 2545, *et seq.,*E. S. 1881, and the appellee appointed her guardian, by the said circuit court. From the judgment and proceeding, resulting in the appointment of the appellee as such guardian, the appellant appealed to this court. See case of *Fiscus*v. *Turner, ante,*p. 46. After his appointment the appellee made application and obtained an order of the court for the sale of the personal estate owned by the appellant, and to enjoin said sale this proceeding was instituted.

For reasons therein stated the appellee filed his motion to dismiss the complaint. Said motion was sustained by the court, an exception reserved and a judgment of dismissal rendered.

The present proceeding proceeded upon the theory that there was such error in the record in the first action as would work a reversal of the judgment, and as a consequence an annulment of the appellee’s appointment.

In case of the affirmance of said judgment there was no foundation for the present action to rest upon. The judgment in the former action was affirmed. See *Fiscus*v. *Turner, supra.*

We find no error in the record.

Judgment affirmed, and the temporary injunction granted by this court dissolved.

#### SONJA EVETTE PRICE v. CITY OF WINSTON-SALEM

No. 21A01

(Filed 5 October 2001)

Appeal pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 7A-30(2) from the decision of a divided panel of the Court of Appeals, 141 N.C. App. 55, 539 S.E.2d 304 (2000), reversing and remanding an order for summary judgment entered 24 May 1999 by Doughton, J., in Superior Court, Forsyth County. Heard in the Supreme Court 10 September 2001.

*Kennedy, Kennedy, Kennedy and Kennedy, L.L.P., by Harold L. Kennedy, III, and Harvey L. Kennedy, for plaintiff-appellee.*

*Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC, by Gusti W. Frankel and Alison R. Bost, for defendant-appellant.*

PER CURIAM.

Justice EDMUNDS did not participate in the consideration or decision of this case. The remaining members of this Court were equally divided, with three members voting to affirm the decision of the Court of Appeals and three members voting to reverse. Accordingly, the decision of the Court of Appeals is left undisturbed and stands without precedential value. *See Williamson v. Bullington,*353 N.C. 363, 544 S.E.2d 221 (2001); *Reese v. Barbee,*350 N.C. 60, 510 S.E.2d 374 (1999).

AFFIRMED.
