`
`Duty to Avoid Unnecessary Expenses of Serving a Summons
`
`Rule 4 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires certain defendants to cooperate in
`saving unnecessary expenses of serving a summons and complaint. A defendant who is located
`in the United States and who fails to return a signed waiver of service requested by a plaintiff
`located in the United States will be required to pay the expenses of service, unless the defendant

`
`"Good cause" does not include a belief that the lawsuit is groundless, or that it has been
`brought in an improper venue, or that the court has no jurisdiction over this matter or over the
`defendant or the defendant's property.
`
`If the waiver is signed and returned, you can still make these and all other defenses and
`objections, but you cannot object to the absence of a summons or of service.
`
`If you waive service, then you must, within the time specified on the waiver form, serve
`an answer or a motion under Rule 12 on the plaintiff’ and file a copy with the court. By signing
`and returning the waiver form, you are allowed more time to respond than if a summons had been
`served.
