Sheriffs are responsible for the administration and management of jails and houses of correction. Inmates in these facilities are awaiting trial or serving sentences of less than two and one half years. Sheriffs also operate civil process offices which serve court summons and subpoenas. In Fiscal Year 1999, the Sheriff departments of the former Middlesex, Franklin, Hampden, and Worcester counties will be known as Sheriff departments of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Budget Recommendations

The amount recommended in Fiscal Year 1999 will enable the Sheriffs to provide the same level of services as in Fiscal Year 1998.
