In a point of interest decision, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Matthew Cooper is permitting an attendant named Ellanora Baidoo to serve her subtle spouse with legal documents by means of a Facebook message.
Baidoo, 26, "is granted permission to serve defendant with the summons for divorce by private message through Facebook," his lawyer Victor messaging Sena Blood-Dzraku through your account, Cooper wrote.
"This transmission is repeated by the plaintiff's attorney accused once a week for three consecutive weeks or until acknowledged" by her husband and difficult to find.
"I think the new law, and necessary," said attorney Baidoo, Andrew Spinnell.
His customer and Blood-Dzraku got married back in a common service in 2009, yet their relationship disintegrated when Blood-Dzraku reneged on his guarantee to have a conventional Ghanaian wedding function also, Spinnell said. Both are from Ghana.
“She wanted their families there,” the lawyer said.
Subsequently, the wedding was never culminated and the spouse and wife never lived respectively, the legal advisor said — yet Blood-Dzraku obviously still doesn't need a separation.
He stayed in contact with his wife by telephone and Facebook — however that was it, the decisions.
The "last applicant has the defendant address is an apartment vacated in 2011," Cooper said. Baidoo "spoke to the defendant by telephone from time to time and he has said he has no fixed address and no place of employment. It also has refused to be available to be served with divorce papers."
The "post office has no forwarding address for him, there is a billing address linked to your cell phone prepaid, and the Department of Motor Vehicles has no record of him," the ruling said.
"We tried everything, including hiring a private detective - and nothing" Spinnell said.
The first message Facebook husband went last week. "Until now, has not responded," Spinnell said.
