Section 2 AAC 64.920 - Method of filing and service(a) A document required to be filed under this chapter or by order of an administrative law judge must be filed by first-class mail or personal delivery, unless a statute or order of the administrative law judge requires another method. A party shall serve the other parties, directly or through the party's attorney, with legible copies of documents and exhibits filed with the office. A copy of the agency record and the case referral documents submitted as provided in AS 44.64.060(b) and 2 AAC 64.120 need not be served on the parties unless required by statute or agreement.(b) A document required to be served must be served by first-class mail or personal delivery, unless a statute, or order of the administrative law judge, requires a different manner of service. The serving party shall show proof of service by including on, or attaching to, the document a statement identifying the persons served and the date and manner of service used.(c) If a party is represented by an attorney in the case before the office, service must be made upon the attorney. Service on an attorney constitutes service on all of the parties represented by the attorney.(d) If a person is entitled by law to participate in a case and to service of documents, but cannot be served directly because an agency party is prohibited from disclosing the person's address, a party may serve the person by first-class mail, personal delivery, or other method allowed in a statute or order of the administrative law judge, in care of the agency party. The party shall indicate in the proof of service that the person was served at the agency. The agency party shall forward the document served to the person.(e) Filing or service of a document by mail is timely if the postmark indicates the document was mailed on or before the date due, unless an order issued by the office provides that filing or service is effective on receipt.Eff. 7/2/2006, Register 178Authority:AS 44.64.020
