Date Filed: September 29, 2021 Case Number: E074339 Court: California Court of Appeal, Fourth Appellate District, Division Two d in part, and remanded with directions. REQUEST FOR AUGMENTATION. The court holds that an order granting a motion to quash service of summons is appealable and that service by publication is invalid when the published notice identifies the real-property only by assessor’s parcel number rather than by legal description or street address. Accordingly, the trial court’s order quashing service is reversed as to the estate administrator (who made a general appearance and is therefore subject to personal jurisdiction) but affirmed for the other defendants, and the court affirms the vacatur of the default judgment.
