California Codes, Code of Civil Procedure - CCP, Part 2 — Of Civil Actions, Title 10 — Actions in Particular Cases, Chapter 9 — Validating Proceedings, Section 861
Jurisdiction of all interested parties may be had by publication of summons pursuant to Section 6063 of the Government Code in a newspaper of general circulation designated by the court, published in the county where the action is pending and whenever possible within the boundaries of the public agency, and in such other counties as may be ordered by the court, and if there be no such newspaper in any such county or counties then in some adjoining county. In addition, prior to completion of such publication, the agency shall, to the extent which the court finds reasonably practicable, give notice of the pendency of the proceeding by mail or other means ordered by the court.
Notes
Allows jurisdiction over all interested parties through published summons in a court-designated general-circulation newspaper in the county of the action, preferably within the agency’s boundaries, and in other ordered counties, using an adjoining county if none exists. Before publication ends, the agency must also give mail or other court-ordered notice to the extent reasonably practicable.
