Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan

Due Process

In Civil Cases, Is it considered an adequate defense if the Plaintiff intentionally interferes with the proper service of court action?

Example: The plaintiff & defendant live together in the same residence. The plaintiff uses proper service to have the court papers delivered via mail, to the defendant, at the same address the plaintiff resides. Then, the plaintiff intercepts the notice of pending court action in order to obtain a judgement by default.
