Ellanora Baidoo, 26, married Victor Sena Blood-Dzraku in a civil ceremony in 2006.
The relationship deteriorated shortly thereafter and the pair went their separate ways.
When Baidoo finally went to make the split official, she could find no fixed mailing address or place of employment for her spouse, who refused to turn up to receive papers when contacted by phone. After Baidoo finally resorted to hiring a private detective and still failed to find her ex, the judge consented to her efforts to deliver papers through a Facebook message.
The landmark ruling sets precedent for this delivery mechanic to become commonplace across the US.
