Richmond County Supreme Court (26 Central Ave) & 13th Judicial District Standards
Coterminous with Richmond County and forming New York's 13th Judicial District (within the Appellate Division, Second Department), Staten Island combines an urban judicial hub in St. George (26 Central Avenue and 18 Richmond Terrace) with suburban single-family neighborhoods, townhouse homeowner associations, and major maritime/logistics hubs along the West Shore Expressway (NY-440) and Staten Island Expressway (I-278).
Because Staten Island is a borough of New York City, every process server operating in Richmond County must comply with both NYC Administrative Code § 20-403 (DCWP Individual Process Server licensing and 20 RCNY § 2-233c third-party electronic GPS logging) AND the Appellate Division Second Department's strict residential due-diligence rules under CPLR § 308.
Foreclosure Actions (RPAPL § 1303), Suburban Estates & Hospital Subpoena Routing
With the highest rate of private homeownership in New York City, Richmond County has a substantial volume of residential mortgage foreclosure actions, quiet-title suits, matrimonial proceedings, and Civil Court litigation at 927 Castleton Avenue. For residential foreclosure summonses and complaints, NY RPAPL § 1303 requires that the statutory 'Help for Homeowners in Foreclosure' notice be printed on bold, colored paper strictly distinct from the color of the summons and complaint and served together with the pleadings.
Assigned Staten Island servers verify colored-paper RPAPL § 1303 attachments prior to field dispatch, document John/Jane Doe tenant occupancy inquiries at multi-family homes, and serve medical record subpoenas at Staten Island University Hospital — Northwell Health (475 Seaview Avenue) and Richmond University Medical Center (355 Bard Avenue).
