Does a document that has been electronically filed require a Certificate of Service?
Yes, a Certificate of Service must be included with each document filed electronically indicating how service was accomplished on each party. The filer must serve a paper copy of any electronically-filed document on a party not registered to file electronically. To determine if someone is a registered user, the filer can click on the ‘Utilities’ feature from the blue menu bar. Select the ‘Mailings’ hyperlink and then the ‘Mailing Info for a Case.’ Once you type in the case number, a screen will display a list of the parties who receive email notices and the parties who require manual noticing.
