SB285 - An Act To Amend Title 10 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Residency Requirements For Justice Of The Peace Court Constables.
Darius Brown, Peter C. Schwartzkopf, Kyle Evans Gay
Last updated 5 months ago
10 Co-Sponsors
This bill eliminates the requirement that Justice of the Peace Court constables reside within the State of Delaware. The residency requirement was established when Constables were independent officers, and had their own bonding requirements and penalties for failure to do the business of the Court. Constables are now employees of the Justice of the Peace Court and the residency requirement is no longer needed. The removal of the requirement will allow the Justice of the Peace Court to recruit from a larger pool of candidates and to retain existing trained and skilled employees.
