It rarely stands in court.
I had that done on my property, because a lawyer decided that I was the so-called defendant ... It so happened that the defendant had the same name, lived on the same street ( he was at 350 , I was at 315 ) and roughly the same age. It was quashed within 24 hours, with all expenses to be paid by the demanding lawyer.

Correct its rare and only allowed in some places.
Pocket filing usually means serving a summmons without filing it with the Court first, this is more common and again can only happen in some places.
