<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I agree with Joseph as he stated what I did with much more clarity than I did. My warning still is valid. I had a landlord that posted an alias on an address
other than the rental unit the landlord owned and it caused the landlord problems. That is why I stated do NOT post the alias summons, make sure it is personally served and ask either draft your own summons without the 5 day wording or ask the clerk to redact
the 5 day portion of the summons.(not sure how that would read) but you get the idea.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;color:blue">My experience is that you may get an alias for ten dollars or so from the clerk but you don't need to do anything, other than have the original complaint served personally with the alias. Count
I is in rem and count II is in personam, and it is not necessarily your job to clarify how he should be responding. All judges I have encountered hold the defendant to the literal words in the summons (typically number 5. for the monetary claim), and ignore
responses related to the in rem action as untimely (assuming response isn't a 1.540 motion, etc.). If they missed notice of Count I for final judgment so be itsn't necessary for an in rem action and not your job to explain. Not sure you need to do anything
beyond personal service.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
