Subsequently, Defendant moved out-of-state, and gave counsel an address and phone number at which she could be contacted. 3. Counsel was served with a Complaint in this matter on January 21, 2003, after which he repeatedly tried to contact Defendant by telephone at the number she gave him, without success. 4. On January 27, 2003, counsel mailed a letter to Defendant at the out-of-state address where she said she would be staying, stating that the Complaint had been served and requesting that she contact him. 5. On February 6, 2003 and February 9, 2003, Defendant left voice mail messages for counsel when his office was closed, indicating that she had been in a car accident and would not be able to travel for awhile, but that she would call him the following week. She also indicated that she was no longer staying at the address she had given him, and had no new address or phone number where he could contact her. However, she stated that counsel could write to her at an out-of-state post office box address. 6. On February 7, 2003, counsel was able to reach by telephone the person with whom Defendant had been staying, who informed him that Defendant had moved out several weeks earlier and left no address or number where she could be reached. 7.
