On November 25, 2020 Governor Wolf signed into law Act 134 which increases the training surcharge collected by counties in support of the Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff Education and Training Program. Act 134 consolidates the Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff Education and Training Act (P.L. 3, No. 2) into Title 44 (Law and Justice). Act 134 increases the surcharge fees for service of any complaint, summons, writ or other legal paper Sheriffs’ are required to serve or post.
For all sheriffs’ offices, the fee will increase as follows:
- Beginning January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021, the surcharge will be $16.
- Beginning January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2022, the surcharge will be $18.
- Beginning January 1, 2023, and thereafter, the surcharge will be $20.
