An Act relative to travel mileage rate fees for sheriffs, deputy sheriffs and constables

This bill (HD 1227) updates travel mileage reimbursement rates for sheriffs, deputy sheriffs, and constables in Massachusetts. It sets a uniform rate of 65.5 cents per mile for travel related to serving legal documents, warrants, subpoenas, and jury notices. For trips exceeding 50 miles, the rate drops to 15 cents per mile for the excess distance. The changes apply specifically to the travel costs these officers incur while performing official duties under Chapter 262 of the General Laws.
