When a document filed after the initial complaint is served by filing it with the court’s electronic
filing system, no certificate of service is required when all parties are electronic filers and will
receive notice through the court’s electronic filing system. When a document that is required to
be served is served by means other than the court’s electronic filing system, the document must
include a certificate of service indicating that the document has been served on all parties
contemporaneously with its filing with the court, or within a reasonable period of time after the
document has been filed with the court, and must list each party on which the document has been
served by means other than the court’s electronic filing system, and the means of service.
