Yes. I think it's people over seventy. Last May my father was 87, and in a nursing home. I sent back the summons filled out informing them of his age and actual residence. He was upset he couldn't serve and I think he wanted to get out of the nursing home for different environs. I didn't blame him but explained he couldn't really serve.
