HB 77 Kelley, Ann
HB 77 -- COLLECTION OF COURT COSTS
SPONSOR: Kelley (127)
Currently, when a special process server in a county that receives money from the Deputy Sheriff Salary Supplementation Fund serves a summons, writ, subpoena, or other specified order of the court, the process server has to deposit $10 into the fund. This bill specifies that the $10 will be collected by the court clerk, paid into the county treasury, sent to the State Treasurer, and then deposited into the fund.
Additionally, when a person other than a sheriff is specially appointed to serve process in a county, he or she must deliver a check, along with confirmation of service and a notarized affidavit of confirmation, to the circuit clerk to prove that payment was made to the sheriff for the Deputy Sheriff Salary Supplementation Fund.
This bill is similar to HB 2698 (2022) and HB 1822 (2021).
