In custody cases, both private and public (e.g., Arizona Department of Child Safety-involved dependency actions), what service of process does federal and state law require when a parent is domiciled, and lives, in another country? You may be surprised to learn that The Hague Service Convention, a federal treaty, requires litigants to take specific actions at specific times when suing non-US-national persons living in other countries, and if these actions are not taken, service is not complete; Arizona State law reflects substantially the same requirements. In this 60-minute CLE, you will learn these rules and procedures, including:

• The Hague Service Contention
• Applicable rules from the Arizona Civil Rules of Procedure, Arizona Rules of Family Law Procedures, and Arizona Rules of Procedure for the Juvenile Court.
• Relevant federal and state case law describing service-of-process requirements.
