Rippling, an HR tech startup, is attempting to serve Deel CEO Alex Bouaziz with legal papers related to a lawsuit alleging that Deel paid an employee to spy on Rippling. However, French bailiffs hired by Rippling have been unable to locate Bouaziz at his registered address in Paris. Reports suggest that Bouaziz, known to be nomadic, lists his location variably on social media, complicating the process. While Deel denies any wrongdoing, Rippling may have to resort to serving Bouaziz via email, as their attempts to physically deliver the papers remain unsuccessful.
