The court held that the substituted service orders and subsequent service were valid because the Judgment Creditor had reasonably relied on JPN search results and complied with procedural rules; the Judgment Debtor's failure to update JPN records prevented her challenge; consequently the Bankruptcy Notice, Creditor's Petition and Adjudication/Receiving Orders were not nullified and the appeal by the Judgment Creditor succeeds.
