TAMPA, Fla. — The process servers showed up to 10 Church of Scientology properties in Clearwater, Florida, and California with legal documents in hand.
They tried 27 times over four months to serve Scientology leader David Miscavige with a federal trafficking lawsuit that names him as a defendant, according to records filed in the case.
Security guards, the court filings state, refused to accept documents from the process servers, declined to answer questions and said they did not know where Miscavige lived or worked despite him being the ecclesiastical leader of the organization.
