Sheriffs; appointment of special reserve deputies authorized
Pending Committee Action in House of Origin
Summary
The bill lets a county sheriff hire special reserve deputies when more than 250 court writs for property seizure are pending but not yet executed. The deputies can perform the writs and receive a service fee, set by the sheriff up to $250, paid directly by the petitioner. The measure also defines qualifications, training, and gives these deputies the same legal protections as regular deputies.
