Ladies and Gentlemen,

     We've wrapped up our 2019 Summer Conference, held at the High Country Conference Center, in Flagstaff!! We had several amazing classes, including 'What You Do Matters: Lessons from the Holocaust', presented by Yavapai County Attorney Sheila Polk; Human Trafficking, presented by retired Phoenix PD Sgt. Chis Bray; and updates from the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission. We were also able to offer judgment shoot and range qualifications to our members. We had over 70 attendees, consisting of sheriff's office personnel, constables, deputy constables, and constable support staff!!

     During our business meeting, we welcomed two newly appointed constables (Pima County/Precinct #8 Constable Kristen Randall, and Maricopa County/Kirene Precinct Constable Ben Halloran), as well as voted Maricopa County /Hassayampa Precinct Constable Scott Blake to fill the constable seat on the Constable Ethics, Standards & Training Board, for counties over 1 million residents.

     Our next training conference will be held in Tubac, from January 21^st through January 23^rd, 2020. Save the date, and check back later this year for the registration forms.

CONSTABLE SCOTT BLAKE
RECEIVES 2018 CONSTABLE OF THE YEAR AWARD

     The Arizona Constables Association, which represents the majority of the Constables in the State of Arizona awarded Scott Blake their Constable of the Year Award.

     Constable Blake took office January 1^st, 2015 for the Hassyampa Justice Precinct of Maricopa County. Constable Blake has been active in the ACA, first as a general member of the ACA executive board, then the ACA Secretary, and now as its Vice President.

     Constables are an integral part of the Justice Court system in the State of Arizona. A Constable is an elected official who serves as the peace officer of the court. In addition to providing judicial security services, Constables are empowered to serve all cases given to them by the Justice of the Peace or other Judges. The process includes service of criminal and civil subpoenas and summonses, writs of restitution (eviction orders), writs of execution (orders to collect judgments), writs of replevin (orders to seize property), orders of protection, injunctions against harassment, and warrants as well as any other orders from the courts. Constables may also be involved in the sale of seized property, summoning jurors for trials, and posting of liquor license notices.

     Constables who are elected by voters within their judicial precincts are able to provide timely and cost efficient service by working directly with the courts in their local communities to ensure the court's orders are served with justice in an ethical and respectful manner.
