  • This file will need to be checked weekly.

  • If the job is in affidavit office follow up it needs to go to the AOS processing bin.

  • If the job is in affidavit to client or assigned back to a vendor for new attempts we can shred the return.

If the Sheriff makes a note on the sheriff return requesting alternative Service, this is what you do in FAST

  • Scan the return as Support Sub Serve Aff

  • Assign the job to 106 Alt Svc Request Passed Review

  • When LEO attempts and is then "requesting alt service", we have to submit that affidavit to the client with a motion for alt service for them to sign. At that point, EZ then submits the motion, support sub serve aff and the order to the court so that the judge can grant or deny service based on the attempt information provided. 

LA Sheriff returns (Court Follow Up Delay)

  • When they come in from court clerks office, attach to scans as Internal Documents

  • If the job was successfully served assign it to LA Sheriff Returns – Successful Serves

  • If the job was not served by sheriff, assign it to LA Sheriff Returns – Non Serve

If the job has been canceled and is in the Stop and Return queue for LA

  • close the job using the service information from the return.

  • enter in date/time/manner of service

  • batch scan as affidavit filed in FAST

  • scan as Filed affidavits on Sharp machine
