The job
The court runner job, day to day
- Taking documents to the clerk's office in Minnesota for filing and bringing back conformed copies
- Records retrieval: case files, recorded deeds and similar public records, copied and scanned
- Embassy and consulate legalization runs where the request calls for them (most are in Washington, DC)
- Recording each trip in the portal, with receipts for any fees paid at the window
What you need
To work as a court runner
- Age 18+ and a current driver's license
- Auto insurance in force; runners don't upload a vehicle registration
- A background check from the last 12 months; an established business can instead ask the owner to waive it, with its name and a link to its reviews
- A smartphone, for offers, scans and portal uploads
- No notary commission and no process server license: runners never serve papers
