    §  2422.  Powers,  duties  and  liabilities  of  marshals  and  deputy
  marshals. 1. The marshals shall  be  the  enforcement  officers  of  the
  court.  The authority of a marshal extends throughout the county and all
  provisions of law relating to the  powers,  duties  and  liabilities  of
  sheriffs  in  like cases and in respect to the taking and restitution of
  property, shall apply to marshals. Every marshal shall keep a record  of
  his official acts in such manner as shall be prescribed by the appellate
  division.   Such records shall show, in addition to the official acts of
  the marshal, all fees and sums received by  the  marshal  therefor,  the
  expenses  of  the  marshal  in  connection  with  the performance of his
  official duties and his gross  and  net  income  as  such  marshal.  The
  records  of  every  marshal shall be open to inspection by the appellate
  division and such officers and employees of the court, or other persons,
  agencies or officials, as may be designated by the appellate division.
    2. A marshal shall be entitled to such fees as may be provided by  the
  uniform  district  court  act.  All  fees  paid  on  account of services
  performed by him shall be the property of the county and shall  be  paid
  to  the  court  clerk  daily  and by him paid to the county treasurer as
  hereinbefore provided in the case of all other county officers.
    3. A marshal of the district court  shall  be  a  peace  officer.  All
  monies  other  than  marshal's  fees  received  by the marshal or by the
  sheriff in relation to the business of said courts which the  county  is
  entitled  to  receive shall be paid to the county treasurer and a report
  thereof shall be filed with the clerk of said courts.
    4. A marshal of the district court shall serve  all  criminal  process
  issued  out  of the court whenever directed by statute, rule or order so
  to do and whenever he is requested so to do by a judge of the court, and
  he shall perform such other  duties  as  any  judge  of  the  court  may
  require.  The  marshal  shall  receive  no  fees or compensation for the
  service of any criminal process issued out of the court.
    5. A deputy marshal of the district court shall have all the powers of
  a marshal and be subject to all the duties and liabilities of a  marshal
  and  shall  give  a bond in the same manner as a marshal before entering
  upon the duties of this office and all the provisions of this act and of
  the uniform district court  act  relating  to  marshals,  their  powers,
  duties and liabilities, shall be deemed to apply with the same force and
  effect to deputy marshals.
