BROWNING v. DIXON

No. 29019.

954 P.2d 741 (1998)

Dale M. BROWNING, Appellant, v. Melvin DIXON, Respondent.

Supreme Court of Nevada.

February 26, 1998.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Eglet & Prince, LLP., Henderson, for Appellant.

Albert D. Massi, Ltd., Las Vegas, for Respondent.


OPINION

PER CURIAM:

The principal issue raised in this appeal is whether a plaintiff must use due diligence to locate a defendant before resorting to the substitute service provisions of NRS 14.070(2). We conclude that procedural due process requires such diligence, and we reverse the district court's order denying appellant Dale Browning's motion to set aside the default judgment entered against him.
