construed and administered to secure the just,speedy,and inexpensive determination of every action.Rule 2 One Form of Action There shall be one form of action to be known as civil action.II.COMMENCEMENT OF ACTION;SERVICE OF PROCESS,PLEADINGS,MOTIONS,AND ORDERS Rule 3 Commencement of Action A civil action is commenced by filing a complaint with the court.Rule 4 Summons (a)Form.The summons shall be signed by the clerk,bear the seal of the court,identify the court and the parties,be directed to the defendant,and state the name and address of the plaintiffs attorney or,if unrepresented,of the plaintiff.It shall also state the time within which the defendant must appear and defend,and notify the defendant that failure to do so will result in a judgment by default against the defendant for the relief demanded in the complaint.The court may allow a summons to be amended.(b)Issuance.Upon or after filing the complaint,the plaintiff may present a summons to the clerk for signature and seal.If the summons is in proper form,the clerk shall sign,seal,and issue it to the plaintiff for service on the defendant.A summons,or a copy of the summons if addressed to multiple defendants,shall be issued for each defendant to be served.(c)Service with Complaint;by Whom Made.(1)A summons shall be served together with a copy of the complaint.The plaintiff is responsible for service of a summons and complaint within the time allowed under subdivision(m)and shall furnish the person effecting service with the necessary copies of the summons and complaint.(2)Service may be effected by any person who is not a party and who is at least 18 years of age.At the request of the plaintiff,however,the court may direct that service be effected by a United States marshal,deputy United States marshal,or other person or officer specially appointed by the court for the purpose.Such an appointment must be made when the plaintiff is authorized to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to1915 or is authorized to proceed as a seaman under1916(d)Waiver of Service;Duty to Save Costs of Service;Request to Waive.(1)A defendant who waives service of a summons does not thereby waive any objection to the venue or to the jurisdiction of the court over the person of the defendant.(2)An individual,corporation,or association that is subject to service under subdivision(e),(f),or(h)and that receives notice of an action in the manner provided in this paragraph has a duty to avoid unnecessary costs of serving the summons.To avoid costs,the plaintiff may notify such a defendant of the commencement of the action and request that the defendant waive service of a summons.The notice and request.(A)shall be in writing and shall be addressed directly to the defendant,if an individual,or else to an officer or managing or general agent(or other agent authorized by appointment or law to receive service of process)of a defendant subject to service under subdivision(h);(B)shall be dispatched through first-class mail or other reliable means;(C)shall be accompanied by a copy of the complaint and shall identify the court in which it has been

request;(E)shall set forth the date on which request is sent;(F)shall allow the defendant a reasonable time to return the waiver,which shall be at least 30 days from the date on which the request is sent,or 60 days from that date if the defendant is addressed outside any judicial district of the United States;and (G)shall provide the defendant with an extra copy of the notice and request,as well as a prepaid means of compliance in writing.If a defendant located within the United States fails to comply with a request for waiver made by a plaintiff located within the United States,the court shall impose the costs subsequently incurred in effecting service on the defendant unless good cause for the failure be shown.(3)A defendant that,before being served with process,timely returns a waiver so requested is not required to serve an answer to the complaint until 60 days after the date on which the request for waiver of service was sent,or 90 days after that date if the defendant was addressed outside any judicial district of the United States.(4)When the plaintiff files a waiver of service with the court,the action shall proceed,except as provided in paragraph(3),as if a summons and complaint had been served at the time of filing the waiver,and no proofs of service shall be required.(5)The costs to be imposed on a defendant under paragraph(2)for failure to comply with a request to waive service of a summons shall include the costs subsequently incurred in effecting service under subdivision(e),(f),or(h),together with the costs,including a reasonable attorneys fee,of any motion required to collect the costs of service.(e)Service Upon Individuals Within a Judicial District of the United States.Unless otherwise provided by federal law,service upon an individual from
