    Do they have sheriffs in Ontario, Canada?

    Question #14264. Asked by thx. (Oct 20 01 7:38 AM)


    Tabby Tom

    		The contents page of the Ontario Rules of Civil Procedure contains a number of references to sheriffs, so the answer seems to be yes. But the duties of a sheriff in Ontario may well be different from those of a sheriff in the US, just as Scottish sheriffs are different animals from English ones.

    		Sheriffs in Ontario have limited duties related to enforcement of court orders. They are now refered to generally as enforcement officers.
