Today at 11:00 180 bailiffs gave oath in the RA Police Academy. The
bailiff service implemented from this year is a part of RA Court
Department. The mission of the service is to protect and control
social order and security, court session process, court building,
equipments and territory.

The new service is coordinated by the leader of Court Department,
and every court has its service subdivisions. Note that there are 507
bailiffs in Armenia 57 of which are women. Today only 180 bailiffs
took part in the oath ceremony.

The difference between the bailiffs and court police officers is
that they are not allowed to wear weapons but rubber sticks. They
were special uniforms affirmed by the RA Government.
