Vermont Return of Service is a form that must be filed with the Vermont Secretary of State in order to provide evidence that a legal document (such as a summons or complaint) has been served upon a party in a civil case. There are two types of Vermont Return of Service: the Affidavit of Service and the Certificate of Service. The Affidavit of Service is signed by the person who performed the service, and is used to prove that the document was served in accordance with the law. The Certificate of Service is signed by the party or their attorney, and is used to certify that the service was performed in accordance with the law. Both forms of Return of Service must be filed with the Vermont Secretary of State in order for the court to process the case.
