Existing law governs unlawful detainer proceedings to effect the removal of a tenant from the property. Existing law specifies the manner of serving notice upon a tenant under those circumstances. Existing law requires service of the notice by delivering a copy to the tenant personally. If the tenant is absent from his or her place of residence, and from his or her usual place of business, existing law provides that notice may be served by leaving a copy with some person of suitable age and discretion at either place, and sending a copy through the mail addressed to the tenant at his or her place of residence. If the residence and business cannot be ascertained, or a person of suitable age and discretion there cannot be found, existing law authorizes the notice to be served by affixing a copy in a conspicuous place on the property and delivering a copy to the person there residing, if that person can be found, and by sending a copy through the mail addressed to the tenant at the place where the property is situated. This bill would revise the provision governing the methods of serving notice upon a commercial tenant, as defined, for purposes of the unlawful detainer provisions by deleting the requirement that service be made at the tenant's place of residence or usual place of business. The bill would instead provide that service upon a commercial tenant be made by (1) delivering a copy to the tenant personally, (2) leaving a copy with some person of suitable age and discretion at the property and sending a copy through the mail, as specified, or (3) by affixing a copy in a conspicuous place on the property and sending a copy through the mail, as specified.
