Paragraph 6.1 Service of schedule of arrestment

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

If a schedule of arrestment has not been personally served on an arrestee, the arrestment shall have effect only if a copy of the schedule is also sent by registered post or the first class recorded delivery service to–

(a)

the last known place of residence of the arrestee; or

(b)

if such place of residence is not known, or if the arrestee is a firm or corporation, to the arrestee’s principal place of business if known, or, if not known, to any known place of business of the arrestee,

and the sheriff officer must, on the certificate of execution, certify that this has been done and specify the address to which the copy of the schedule was sent.
