Constables in Linn County to Serve Papers Policy Shift
Linn county Sheriff Waller Grant announced on Tuesday that he will discontinue serving papers for Oxpeare offices in Marion township, forcing township constables to perform the service. The move follows a public letter criticizing the Iowa code that obliges constables to serve papers while sheriffs may do so. The policy, effective next Monday, comes after a recent pay raise for constables and notes a heavy workload in the sheriff's office. Marion township, with a population over 10,000, is the only township in Linn where constables are salaried in addition to fees earned.
