Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama affirmed the summary judgment, holding that service on Main and Associates was improper and the wrongful‑death action was untimely. Justice Shaw’s concurring opinion explained that the employee who signed for the certified letter was not an authorized agent, and Justice Sellers dissented, arguing that service was effective and the action should be revived.
