"Process servers, you've been served -- with stricter regulations. New
York's City Council passed a bill Thursday toughening rules for
entities that hunt down people and serve them with legal papers,
including a requirement that they electronically log every attempt.
The legislation also ensures that deceitful process servers who
dump papers instead of serving them -- a trick known as "sewer service"
-- could be liable if the people they were supposed to serve then turn
and sue them.
The City Council approved the legislation largely to crack down
on debt collection agencies that are often accused of failing to notify
debtors that they have lawsuits pending against them.
Out of some 300,000 consumer credit cases filed in New York civil
courts in 2008, about 80 percent resulted in default judgments in favor
of the plaintiffs, the city said, meaning most defendants didn't know
they were being sued."
