Summary

The bill amends the language that governs how eviction notices are served, specifying that sheriffs, special process servers, or constables may perform service and that delivering the notice to a resident who is legally competent (sui juris) on the premises counts as proper service. It impacts landlords, tenants, and the law‑enforcement officials who handle eviction paperwork. The change is intended to clarify who can legally receive an eviction notice and streamline the process.
