Summons must be served within 120 days or a new summons must be issued.

You have 120 days to serve the complaint. You do not need a new summons, but you would need and extension of time to serve, which the court will provide.

the court will issue a "alias Summons" which is $10.00(depending on the county you filed in). You have 120 days to serve the complaint.
