For legislation to increase the limit of damages allowable for the service of a writ or other process by certain constables. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to increase the limit of damages allowable for the service of a writ or other process by certain constables from $7,000 to $25,000. The existing law, Chapter 41 Section 92 of the General Laws, is being amended to reflect this change. This update aims to provide more appropriate compensation for constables who serve civil process documents, such as writs, as the previous limit of $7,000 had not been adjusted in some time.
