Unclaimed is a good service. No. of attempts depends on court to court. For taking steps you hav to make appropriate application through your lawyer. I would suggest take hire a good lawyer and bring your matter on track as this is initial stage and if this is taking so much time when the actual proceeding wl start. for further assistance feel free to contact.

Well, if the remark which you have got says that Item Return Unclaimed, it means, you did your job as a Plaintiff. If it got returned, it is not your fault. In this case, the summons will be considered as not duly served, but other modes of service of notice from your end must be tried through Bailiff which you have mentioned for the proper service.
