Did you receive an Alias Tax Warrant?

(CGS 12-162 Alias Tax Warrant) When motor vehicle or personal property taxes have become delinquent, there is a possibility that your bills will be turned over to a state marshal or constable for collection. Once an Alias Tax Warrant has been served, the collection process for those bills are handled only by the Marshal/Constable who served the warrant. A constable is an elected official of the Town. CLICK HERE to view the names of constables in East Hartford.
