IN RE MARRIAGE OF McLEAN

No. 64045-9.

937 P.2d 602 (1997)

132 Wash.2d 301

In re the MARRIAGE OF Kenneth Eugene McLEAN, Sr., Petitioner, and Terri L. McLean (now Earp), Respondent.

Supreme Court of Washington, En Banc.

Decided June 5, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Hickman & Webster, Ronald B. Webster, Colfax, for petitioner.

Lisa McCammond, Colfax, for respondent.


MADSEN, Justice.

At issue in this case is whether RCW 26.09.175(2) and due process are satisfied when pleadings in a proceeding to modify an award of child support under a dissolution decree entered by a Washington court are served upon the nonpetitioning parent by certified mail, return receipt requested, but the mailing is returned marked unclaimed. We hold such service satisfies the statute and due process, and therefore affirm the Court of Appeals.
