Re: serving a court order to someone out of the country
Is there a current claim (lawsuit ) pending against you? Does it relate to the property in any way?
If so they may try to attach the property or get jurisdiction over you through the property. Ultimately, they would have to serve you (for a MN or Fed. court action) personally, perhaps via the Long Arm Statute.
