Title 15, Chapter 16, Section 22
( 15-16-22)
For serving any process, summons, or notice in a county other than
the county of his residence, a sheriff shall charge 10¢ per mile for
each mile traveled outside the county of his residence, whether the
service is made by the sheriff or by a deputy. The fees shall be
taxed as a part of the costs in the case to which the process,
summons, or notice pertains. The sheriff, before serving or having
served the process, summons, or notice outside the county of his
residence, shall have a right to require the party or his attorney
requesting the service to deposit with him a sufficient amount to
cover the mileage fees provided for in this Code section. |
