Had a sweaty minute in court today 😂 the judge took me up again on why I brought an application to serve a company through its director when the Defendant is a company. Can you serve a company through substituted means? I said no my lord, I am not serving the company through substituted means but I am serving the director as provided by the rules, since it’s impossible to deliver to the director personally. I need a court order to send to him through WhatsApp and which does not mean serving the company through substituted means as forbidden in Mark v Eke.
Moreso, I didn’t bring my application under the provision for substituted means as contained in the rules. Then she said Oya tell me the difference between personal service and substituted service. Na so I begin dey lecture dey cite authorities. I opened my rules and I submitted to allow me move my application. Added that if the director comes out to now say it’s improper service, I can just hand the processes over to him and that will constitute good and proper service. She just smiled 😀 and said counsel: proceed to move your application. I moved and she granted it.

As a lawyer, even if your client confessed to you that he/she committed the crime, it’s not in your place to tell the court or the prosecution that your client confessed to you. Your job is to make sure that your client goes through fair trial and the job of the prosecution is to prove the offence beyond reasonable doubt.
