The Sheriff Civil Department’s commissioned peace officers execute civil matters on behalf of District, Family, and Justice courts. They handle the service of civil court orders, including protective orders, wage garnishment, subpoenas, and bench warrants. The department is dedicated to delivering service with respect, integrity, and accountability.

If you receive a call stating that you have a warrant, missed jury duty, registration (professional or vehicle) is suspended, did not respond to a subpoena – or any reasons similar to these – be advised this is a scam! The Sheriff’s Civil Section will not call you to demand payment for these matters. Do not provide any personal or financial information.
