[Linn], in the sum of $500.00” (emphasis added). The date of service is recited as February 13, 2009. On March 4, 2009, Linn filed a Notice of Objections and Objections, contending, among other things, that he was denied due process of law because our Notice was actually served on February 17, 2009, and that he “has not been afforded the requisite 15 days notice to timely respond.” He attached a copy of the envelope in which our Notice was served. The envelope is postmarked February 17, 2009. We acknowledge that the date of actual service was not the date specified on our Notice of Intention.
