<p class="MsoNormal">I no longer perform UD actions, but I did thousands of them in a prior life. I occasionally served tenants while in jail. I’d do that here, under the theory that service is to provide notice and she is more likely to receive notice via
actual service in jail as opposed to the sub service on the husband (of course, it makes sense to do both).<o:p></o:p></p>
