SUMMARY
A constable may serve legal process on an individual failing to
appear at a truancy hearing. Even though this duty would generally
be performed by the school attendance officer in those counties that
have selected a school attendance officer, it is lawful for a constable
to serve any legal process addressing the compulsory attendance
provisions of the Education Code.
