Another creative way to Serve foreign defendants.
On February 24, 2010, Microsoft provided notice and service of the Complaint, Summons, and related materials in English and Chinese through the publicly available website (www.noticeofpleadings.com) Microsoft has updated the website throughout this case.
The Court’s orders and notice regarding this action have also been widely reported in international media publications, including news media in China. (D.I. 32-2 at ¶¶ 15-22.) The reporting and publication of this action in China and throughout the world have been continuous. (Ramsey Decl, Ex. 11 (filed herewith).)
