Connecticut: In 2000, Connecticut eliminated the county sheriff system, and replaced it with two types of marshals. "State" marshals operate out of the executive branch of state government. They are sworn peace officers who perform a wide range of duties, including service of process, seizing money and property under court order, evictions, serving tax warrants, and arresting individuals on bench warrants. "Judicial" marshals are employed by the judicial branch. They are sworn peace officers who perform court security and transport detainees to and from court.
