Summary

The law creates a $60 charge for each civil document personally served by the Tuscaloosa County sheriff’s office, with an $85 fee for documents requested from outside the state. After a $3 portion is kept by the circuit clerk or probate office, the remaining amount is split evenly between the sheriff’s law‑enforcement fund and the district attorney’s solicitor fund. Certain court‑issued and mental‑health documents are exempt from the fee.
