What exactly is a bailiff?
A bailiff is someone who works on behalf of the courts to remove goods to the value of a debt. The only way to stop the removal of goods is to pay the debt in full. There are several types of bailiffs who act differently according to the type of debt being collected. A debt collector, who has no powers at all, is NOT a bailiff. A bailiff recovering goods for Civil Parking Enforcement contraventions has legal powers to enforce upon receipt of a warrant from the Issuing Authority.
