United States, 105 F.2d 253, 255 (5th Cir.1939) ("The word ‘filed’ ... is, as applied to court proceedings, a word of art, having a long established and well understood meaning, deriving from the practice of filing papers on a string or wire. It requires of one filing a suit, merely the depositing of the instrument with the custodian for the purpose of being filed.... [I]t charges him with no further duty[.]”); Black’s Law Dictionary 660 (8th ed. 1999) (defining "file” as "To deliver a legal document to the court clerk or record custodian for placement into the official record”). The distinction between filing and service is well-established in our jurisprudence. See, e.g., Varela v. Hi-Lo Powered Stirrups, 424 A.2d 61, 67-68 (D.C.1980) (en banc)  (emphasis in the original). 47 . See Henderson

What is the most suitable continuation to the opinion? Your options are:
A. recognizing the clear understanding that the manner by which an action is commenced via filing of the complaint with the court  presents a completely different and separable array of considerations from the manner by which service of process is to be made
B. holding that plaintiffs amended complaint was not barred by the applicable statute of limitations where the amendment merely expanded on plaintiffs negligence theories and stating that in a tort action an amendment may vary the statement of the original complaint as to the manner in which the plaintiff was injured or as to the manner of the defendants breach of duty
C. holding that dismissal of a complaint pursuant to former  1915d now  1915e is not appropriate where a plaintiff has made a partial payment of filing fees and that in such cases the court must treat the complaint in the same manner as one for which in forma pauperis status has not been granted
D. holding that the relevant time of inquiry is the date of the filing of the complaint
E. recognizing that it is well settled law that an action is commenced by the service of a summons and without valid service of process the trial court has no jurisdiction to act
