The bill pertains specifically to Marengo County and establishes new provisions for the service of process by the sheriff. It allows the sheriff to contract with private, public, or governmental entities for this purpose, which is a new insertion into the law. Additionally, the bill sets specific fees for the service of process: $50 for documents requiring personal service within the county, $50 for those outside the county but within the state, and $75 for documents requiring service outside the state. However, a judge may waive these fees if it is determined that paying them would cause substantial hardship, which is also a new provision included in the bill.

Furthermore, the bill mandates that the collected service of process fees be remitted to the sheriff for deposit into the Sheriff's Law Enforcement Fund, which the sheriff can use for law enforcement purposes. It is important to note that the funds generated by this act cannot replace any other income sources for the sheriff or the operation of the jail. The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2024.
