What are Some Typical Documents a Constable or Process Server can Serve?
Constables and process servers are vital to the legal system, ensuring the delivery of essential court documents to defendants and other parties. These documents include subpoenas, summonses, restraining orders, eviction notices, and more. Below are some of the most common types of documents served by constables and process servers:
**Subpoenas**  

A subpoena is a court order requiring an individual to appear in court or provide testimony or evidence in a case. Whether it’s for a deposition at the John Adams Courthouse or a hearing at the Suffolk County Courthouse, subpoenas ensure that critical witnesses and evidence are presented.
**Summonses**  

A summons is an official notice informing someone that they have been named as a defendant in a lawsuit and must respond to the court. Summonses are essential for initiating legal actions and ensuring due process.
**Restraining Orders & Temporary Protective Orders (TPOs)**
These orders prohibit certain types of contact between the plaintiff and defendant, ensuring the safety and protection of the involved parties. The issuance of these orders often involves urgent matters of personal safety, handled efficiently by experienced process servers.
**Eviction Notices**  

An eviction notice is issued by a landlord, informing tenants that they must vacate the premises within a specified period due to non-compliance with their lease agreement. Eviction documents vary, but the most common type served by a constable is a Notice to Quit. This notice is typically served when a tenant fails to pay rent or breaches their lease, prompting the landlord to initiate legal removal. Other eviction documents include a summons and complaint (starting an eviction lawsuit), a 48-hour Notice to Quit, or a writ of possession (ordering the tenant to vacate the property).
**Bank Levies & Writs of Garnishment** 

These legal documents allow creditors to collect debts by garnishing the debtor's wages or levying their bank accounts. Proper service of these documents is crucial for creditors seeking to recover owed funds.
