CIVIL PROCESS

Big Stone County will not provide legal advice for civil law and we will recommend talking with an attorney to answer those questions.

  • Cover letter with who you want served
  • Full name and date of birth if possible
  • Address of service location
  • What papers are being served
  • Address of where you want the papers returned
  • Include enough copies for the service to take place
Fees
  • Mortgage Redemption ($ 100)
  • Mortgage Foreclosure Sale ($ 50)
  • Civil Process, Plus Mileage ($ 50)
  • Posting Of Notice ($ 50)
  • Unserved Process ($ 40)
  • Mileage ($ .50/mile)
