Best Answer

A constable cannot serve a certified letter. Certified letters are from the US Postal Service, while a constable is a court employee used to help execute on judgments. Some courts may permit a constable to use certified mailing as opposed to personal servicet, to give debtors notice of wage garnishment. If the certified mailing is accepted or even refused by the debtor, service will be deemed complete. Service by certified mail is usually accompanied by a mailing of ordinary mail simultaneously. If the certified mail comes back because it simply was not picked, the ordinary mailing proves that the debtor lives there if the ordinary mailing does not come back as Addressee Unknown. These methods of service may not be utilized in all courts, so the debtor has to look into the court rules where the judgment came from.
