Court Rules

Service and Proof of Service Rules

11400 rules across 176 courts

Service rules govern how parties must deliver filed documents to other parties and how that service must be proved. In e-filing courts, service can depend on whether a party is registered for electronic service, whether self-represented parties must receive paper service, and whether a certificate or proof of service must be attached. These rules often sit outside the filing portal itself, so a technically accepted filing can still be deficient if service is missing or late.
