Who May Serve Papers in Union County: Clerk Mail, Sheriff, Bailiff or Court-Designated Server
Being a stone's throw from the clerk's office does not let a plaintiff walk the summons over personally. Ohio's Civ.R. 4.1 allows only the clerk's mailing, then, on request, the sheriff, a bailiff or a person the court designates. Designation needs an oath about age, independence and record, and lasts no longer than a year. The Civ.R. 4.1 article lists the rest.
