Int 1258-2018

Mandating audits of the records of process servers and creating a notification system regarding licensed process servers who have had their licenses suspended, revoked or who have had renewal denied.

This bill would require that the Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) annually audit the records of at least 20% of licensed process servers who have served at least one summons, subpoena, notice, citation or other process for a housing court proceeding. The bill would also require that process servers notify the DCA every six month if they have served process for a housing court proceeding. This bill would further require that the DCA post on its website, and notify process serving agencies, when a process server has been disciplined, or where the process server’s license has been suspended, revoked, or license renewal is denied.
