Process not served
This means that the Bailiff was unable to serve process on the defendant. PF means "individual" and PJ means "legal entity". Then, Citação Negativa PF/PJ means that an individual and a legal entity could not be served process, for whatever reason.

Ivan Rocha, CT
: I would just substitute "process" for "lawsuit".

Thanks, Ivan. However, I have never seen the expression "service of lawsuit" in English. As far as I know, the classic "legalese" for "citação" is "service of process", and as the verbal form I know "to serve process on somebody".
