WILLIAMS, Judge.
The sole issue in this appeal is whether service of process made on defendant's manager employee who was not a registered agent for service of process was effective. We hold that, because defendant's registered agent had not died, resigned or been removed as contemplated in LSA-C.C.P. art. 1261, service on defendant's employee was ineffective. Therefore, we reverse the ruling of the trial court and set aside the default judgment.
