Who May Serve Papers in Noble County: Clerk Mail, Sheriff, Bailiff or Court-Designated Server
Where the county seat is a village and the township surrounds it, the clerk is close and the rule is plain: Civ.R. 4.1 allows the clerk's mail, then the sheriff, a municipal bailiff or a person designated by court order, who serves for a year at most. A server unable to finish in 28 days returns the papers and states the reasons. See the unclaimed mail guide.
