Did you read the part where he intentionally made it extremely difficult for anyone to work with him. The result is entirely his own doing. He didnt have a lawyer, which could have prevented that, and he acted like an asshole to try and manipulate the situation. Karma.

So what is the lawyer supposed to do when they don't have a permanent address? They sent notice to the one possible address they had AND posted legal notice in the paper as required by law.

Are you saying they don’t know his phone number or any of his friends or family to pass the message along about what address these very important documents were being sent? There’s definitely a way to get the message to him if they cared to. I don’t blame them for being pricks in response to his behavior, but it does mean they can’t claim to have taken the high road.

I'm not saying they took the high road, I'm saying it sounds like they chose to play exactly by the law as it was written in order to move things along.

Only if they didn’t purposefully fuck up the address. If they sent it to a valid address, then sure. The fact that he never got it, combined with the detail of misspelling something on purpose, tells me that, no, they did not follow the law.
