## Rhode Island court runner questions

**Will I ever have to serve someone?**

No. Court runners only file, pull records and carry documents. Serving is a separate role with its own requirements.

**Do I need a vehicle registration in Rhode Island?**

No upload is needed for runners: a driver's license, auto insurance and a background check (or an approved waiver) are enough.

**How many runs will I get in Rhode Island?**

That depends on demand near you; no volume is promised.
