Syllabus
The trial court did not err in adopting the magistrate's decision finding that service of process was perfected when appellee received the service packet for appellant from a commercial carrier at the parties' shared address and credibly testified that she provided the packet to appellant, who waited more than 20 months to seek relief from judgment for improper service. Additionally, the trial court did not err in giving deference to the magistrate's credibility determinations while also independently considering the evidence before it. Judgment affirmed.
