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

Pay

## What and how you're paid

Every offer states what the job pays. Take it, pass, or make a counter-offer, and nothing is assigned without your yes.

Requests are offered as they arrive, near your ZIP anywhere in Minnesota (Minneapolis, Saint Paul and Rochester and beyond). How many come in depends on clients, and no amount of work is promised.

Independent contractor work with a 1099 at year end.

Minnesota courts

## What filing looks like in Minnesota

The Conciliation Court handles small claims in Minnesota, up to $20,000 per claim.

Which office takes the filing: Generally the county where the defendant lives or is located (for a corporation, where the business is located). Bad-check claims can go where the check was given, and rent or deposit claims where the rental property is.
