Summary

The court held that Mexico’s accession to the Hague Service Convention, including its objection to the Convention’s alternative service methods, made service through Mexico’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs the exclusive permissible method for serving defendants in Mexico. Service by mail, email, Federal Express, and other alternative methods therefore could not be sustained on the record. The court vacated the order denying the defendants’ motion to dismiss and remanded for the superior court to consider unresolved arguments concerning known addresses and domestic service.
