Case summary: The Plaintiff NIL filed a suit against the defendant HSI in the Texas state court. The return of service showed that the process has been served on the commissioner of Texas state as soon as it was delivered to JK, a defendant in person.

To Explain: (a) The applicability of assertion made by the defendant that JK didn’t have the authority to accept the process on their behalf.
