When Due Process was born..
The history of due process has roots in Magna Carta, issued in 1215. The phrase “due process of law” first appeared in English legislation in 1354.
History of the Legal Process Service
To see this evolution, check out this timeline:1215. English barons extracted the principle of due process of law from King John. Clause 39 of the Magna Carta guaranteed that no free man may be taken or imprisoned, or ousted of his lands, or outlawed, or banished, or hurt in any way; nor will we [the king] go against him, nor send our officers against him, save by lawful judgment of his peers or by the law of the land. And just like that, due process was born.
1868. The Fourteenth Amendment was ratified, extending due-process and equal-protection guarantees against state action.
1970. The United States Supreme Court holds that the Due Process Clause protects the accused against conviction except upon proof beyond a reasonable doubt of every fact necessary to constitute the crime with which he is charged, requiring states to carry the ultimate burden of persuasion by proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
1982 A group of process servers from 11 states met in Las Vegas to form an association for the principal purpose of combating proposed federal legislation that would allow service of a summons and complaint by certified mail. That group, under the leadership of two members of the California Association of Legal Support Professionals, approved the formation of the National Association of Professional Process Servers (NAPPS). Trade-association membership is separate from the registration and other requirements that apply to an assignment.
