Iannetti v. Philadelphia Suburban Transportation Co.

Flood, J.,

— The preliminary objections in this case attack the service of the complaint by which the action was started. The complaint charges defendant with negligence in an accident in which plaintiff was injured in Chester County, Pa. Suit was started in Philadelphia County and service was made by deputizing the Sheriff of Delaware County who served defendant at its office in that county. Defendant objects that since Philadelphia was not the county in which the accident occurred and since defendant did not do a substantial part of its business in Philadelphia, it could not be served there.
