1Opinion of the Court
MARX, KRISTA, Associate Judge.
The Mills Corporation, Inc. (“The Mills”) challenges the trial court’s denial of its motion to set aside default judgment and argues the judgment is void due to improper service. We agree and reverse. Our ruling on this issue renders moot all other issues raised in this appeal.
Maria and Frank Amato, based upon a trip and fall accident at the Broward Mall, filed this personal injury action. On the date of the incident in August, 2005, the Broward Mall was owned and operated by a company that was a subsidiary of The Mills.
