Summary
The bill lets a constable, with the party’s approval, arrange a payment schedule for a debtor rather than taking their property. It also clarifies constable term lengths, requires notification to local law‑enforcement when serving out‑of‑county, and permits constables to employ certified deputy constables. These changes give constables more flexibility while adding oversight mechanisms.
