A claimant issues proceedings against a defendant in the County Court claiming £18,000 for breach of contract. The claim form is issued on 15 January. The claimant's solicitor posts the claim form by first-class post on 20 January to the defendant's last known address. The defendant does not receive the claim form as they moved house two weeks before the proceedings were issued. The claimant later discovers the defendant's new address. What is the effect on service of the claim form?
