process servers
Court paper couriers
Process servers are people who deliver legal documents—summonses, subpoenas, court orders—to individuals involved in legal proceedings.
Proper service ensures defendants receive notice of lawsuits against them.
The job sometimes requires tracking down people who don't want to be found: The process server caught him leaving his girlfriend's apartment.
