When the person has been notified of the impending civil legal action or a resonable attempt has been made by the plaintiff or court to do so the defendant is considered "served" regardless of whether he or she has taken actual possession of the summons/documents. That being so, the case in which the person is a party will go forward with or without his or her participation. Failure to appear generally results in an automatic "win" for the plaintiff and a judgment or whatever allowable action is called for will be enforced against the named defendant(s) property and/or assets.

What happens if a sheriff is unable to serve spouse with divorce papers?
The papers then will be return to the sheriff department on which you requested the service. After that they will try to serve your spouse once again but if they are unavailable to do so, your divorce summons are posible to go back to a pile of files. Remember you are not the only one requesting this service. Also the most important thing here is that you are the requesting party and you have to try to do every possible effort to get the cooperation of your spouse. The sheriff can only try to deliver the papers for you instead of doing it in person. Now things would really complicate if your spouse is out of state or in prison, then for example if the inmate is housed at the liberty correctional prison, and the offense happen at the orange county then the orange county clerk's office should coordinate with the liberty county clerk of court's to have the Liberty county sheriff's office serve your spouse with his divorce paperwork.
