Section 8: Invoicing

State marshals are independent contractors who must create their own invoices to bill private citizens.  When a state marshal does work for the state, however, there are specific invoice forms that must be used.  If the marshal has questions about a particular agency’s forms or procedures, he or she must contact the agency directly. 

Judicial Branch:  When invoicing the state for fee waiver services, service of restraining orders, execution of capias warrants, or other work done for the Judicial Branch, the marshal should use the State Marshal Services Invoice For Service of Process. See the forms at the end of this section. The state marshal should contact the Judicial Branch directly with questions about filling out the invoice or the appropriate form for his or her claims for reimbursement.  The failure to follow the state’s requirements for reimbursement claims may lead to rejected claims or delayed reimbursement.

Please Note: The State Marshal Services Invoice for Service of Process is updated periodically due to mileage rate changes and other changes to the law.  The State Marshal Commission will work in conjunction with the Judicial Branch to circulate these updated invoices when changes are made.  It is important that the state marshal utilize the most current version of the invoice or his or her claim for reimbursement may be rejected by the Judicial Branch.

Most Other State Agencies:  Most other state agencies utilize the CO-17 form for invoicing.  See the forms at the end of this section.  Contact the agency directly about the correct invoice or form to use for reimbursement claims.

Probate Courts:  For reimbursement by a probate court, you should utilize the Probate Court Invoice. See the forms at the end of this section.
