The party requesting service is to provide the Sheriff’s Office with a copy for each party to be served. Once service is affected, the Certificate of Service or Non-Service will be returned to the originating party upon payment.
A deposit is not required, however, if payment accompanies the papers for service, it will expedite the return of the paperwork. Checks can be made payable to the Carlton County Sheriff’s Office.
