Social media sites are not used to surveys and legal world. Lawyers and lawyers working for prosecution leave without basic searching in social media and individual investigators may find the key of a case somewhere on Facebook or Twitter. Small hunting around may reveal that someone on the other side is lame! #
However, the use of Facebook formally created by the court system is quite recent vintage's. In 2008, Australia was the first to allow Facebook messages as a means of alternative court service. In that case it is a notice of foreclosure. Since then, in Australia and New Zealand, joining Canada in 2011, recognized in the UK High Court in February 2012, only a couple of weeks ago the New York state court permitted father's service His former court I will tell my wife's support paper by Facebook message.
It is logical enough - people of whatever kinds of legal documents are offered are not typically wanted to be discovered. Often they filled in some of the previous known addresses and probably changed some phone numbers and e-mail addresses, some measures were taken to get away from the official radar. This makes traditional service forms virtually impossible. In this era when this social media dominates, Facebook looks like a viable option. Everyone seems to be out of Facebook at first glance, but I know many people who are easy to find (and know a lot of things).
But there are a few things the legal world needs to be aware of. The court must be convinced that the traditional paper service was attempted, failed, and that Facebook accounts are the right people and are still regularly used. Furthermore, all of these must be decided in the ethical provisions prohibiting so-called predatory maternity. The inspector can not accept the message by sending a friend's request to the person who defaults his / her mortgage.
Using Facebook messaging in such cases, in many cases the case has shifted towards legal resolution. This is certainly a good result. With a bit of twists, Facebook is quite happy about it! Where the company wants to avoid negative organizations, I was pleased that the court verified the security of Facebook's internal messaging function when a corporate spokesperson said.
Who knows, it could lead to a new business line for social networking sites! The relationship between the use of Facebook and divorce has already expanded, there are many such Facebook pages, and divorce paper and tools are available for free. From beginning to end, and from cause to resolution, Facebook can be anywhere like Google before it. If there are 131 million Facebook users, Facebook's legal drama has many potential players.
