Service Of Documents By Electronic Means

S.D. Ill. RULE 9

Electronic service of the “Notice of Electronic Filing” constitutes service of the filed document and satisfies the certificate of service requirement, unless the filing party has actual knowledge of a technical failure resulting in non-receipt of a document. A paper copy of any electronically filed document should be served upon attorneys who are exempted from utilizing the ECF system, as set out in Electronic Case Filing Rule 1, and pro se users not registered for electronic service. Service of any conventionally filed document must be made according to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, and Local Rules. Page 9 of 13
