Who May Serve Papers in Pickaway County: Clerk Mail, Sheriff, Bailiff or Court-Designated Server
The 28-day return clock in Civ.R. 4.1 matters for far-off addresses: a server who cannot deliver within 28 days endorses the reasons on the process and returns it to the clerk, and late service by itself does not invalidate the service. The server may be the sheriff, a municipal court's bailiff or a court-designated person.
