What is a Constable?

A constable collects debt, performs evictions, and is a process server for all legal

processes.  Constables exercise full statutory discretion to apprehend bail skips,

criminal trespassers, child-support delinquents, and paper-hangers on a warrant while

working closely with other authorities to prevent crime.  Constables function as a key

resource in enforcing judgments around civil disputes.
