What happens if multiple items of civil process are served to one party?

When multiple items of civil process are served to a single party, only one fee is charged for the service. This aligns with the principle of efficiency in the civil process, which aims to avoid imposing unnecessary costs on parties involved in legal proceedings. This means that regardless of how many individual items are being served, the law generally recognizes that it should not be burdensome to charge for each item separately when they are directed to the same recipient at the same time.

This approach also helps to simplify billing and ensures that service of legal process remains accessible to individuals who may already be facing the complexities of legal matters. Charging only one fee promotes fairness and practicality in handling civil process within the legal system.
