Who May Serve Papers in Perry County: Clerk Mail, Sheriff, Bailiff or Court-Designated Server
In Perry County, Civ.R. 4.1 applies as it does statewide: the clerk mails unless a written request asks for personal or residence service. Then the sheriff, a municipal bailiff or a court-designated person delivers. A designated person must be at least 18, not a party, and not related to or financially interested in one. Ask the clerk what your court requires.
