Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
*262MERRITT, Circuit Judge.
In this constitutional challenge under the Due Process Clause to Bankruptcy Rule 704(c)(1),1 defendant-appellant Samuels raises a question of first impression concerning service of process. He argues that bankruptcy service of process by first-class mail instead of by personal service, as provided in the rule, violates the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment because it provides insufficient notice of adversary proceedings and too much room for error. We hold that there is no constitutional notice defect in the rule.
