Who are required to serve and return all process issued by notaries in the taking of depositions?

  1. Teachers and doctors

  2. Sheriffs and constables

  3. Mail carriers and delivery drivers

  4. Actors and musicians

The correct answer is: Sheriffs and constables

Notaries are officers appointed by the state to serve and return process issued in conjunction with the taking of depositions. This means that they are responsible for delivering legal documents, such as subpoenas or summonses, to individuals involved in a case. Teachers, doctors, mail carriers, delivery drivers, actors, and musicians are not considered officials authorized to serve and return legal process, and therefore are not required to do so. Sheriffs and constables, on the other hand, have the authority to fulfill this role and are therefore the correct answer.
