Reply to comment by DBLJ33 in When will an abuser be served? by SoxPatsBruinsCelts

I was under the impression in Massachusetts it has to be served by an officer/sheriff and it has to be in person

The court faxes it over to the police and they attempt to serve it in hand to the defendant.

The judge can allow serving by phone, but they still have to speak directly to the defendant.
