Vermont Sheriff's Return of Service (RS) is a document issued by a sheriff or deputy sheriff that verifies that a legal document or process has been served. RS provides proof of service to the court or other entity that the document was served as required by law. There are three types of Vermont Sheriff's Return of Service: personal service, substituted service, and service by publication. Personal service requires a sheriff or deputy sheriff to deliver the document directly to the person or persons to be served. Substituted service allows a sheriff or deputy sheriff to serve a document to a person related to or associated with the person to be served, such as a family member or roommate. Service by publication requires a sheriff or deputy sheriff to post a notice in a newspaper, and is typically used when a person cannot be located.
