Increases the various fixed fees for the provision of certain services by the sheriff
This bill increases the standard fixed fees that sheriffs in New York state can charge for performing various legal services. The changes directly affect individuals who must pay these fees to the sheriff's office for actions such as serving court papers, seizing property, conducting sales, and executing eviction orders. Under the new law, most of these fees are raised by five dollars, with some specific services seeing larger increases, and the bill also adjusts mileage charges for travel related to these tasks. The updated fee schedule applies to a wide range of procedures, including attachment orders, income executions, chattel recovery, and summary proceedings for evictions. By amending the Civil Practice Law and Rules, the legislation ensures that the compensation for these essential court enforcement activities reflects current economic conditions.
