After a dormant judgment was revived, Peter Mancuso appealed, arguing that he had not been properly served with the scire facias required to revive the judgment. He contended that service by a private process server did not satisfy Georgia’s statutory procedure, which required service by the sheriff in the county where he resided. The Court of Appeals of Georgia agreed. It held that service had not been perfected as the statute required and that the trial court therefore erred in reviving the dormant judgment. The appellate court reversed and remanded with direction.
