Rule 21.100 - ELECTRONIC SERVICE(1) Consent to Electronic Service and Withdrawal of Consent (a) A filer who electronically appears in the action by filing a document through the electronic filing system that the court has accepted is deemed to consent to accept electronic service of any document filed by any other registered filer in an action, except for any document that requires service under ORCP 7 or that requires personal service.(b) A filer who is dismissed as a party from the action or withdraws as a lawyer of record in the action may withdraw consent to electronic service by removing the filer's contact information as provided in subsection (2)(a) of this rule.(c) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, a filer may withdraw consent to electronic service only upon court approval based on good cause shown.(2) Contact Information (a) At the time of preparing the filer's first electronic filing in the action, a filer described in section (1) of this rule must enter in the electronic filing system the name and service email address of the filer, designated as a service contact on behalf of an identified party in the action. If the filer withdraws consent to electronic service under subsection (1)(b) or (1)(c) of this rule, then the filer must remove the filer's name and service email address as a designated service contact for a party.(b) A filer described in subsection (1)(a) of this rule may enter in the electronic filing system, as an other service contact in the action: (i) An alternative email address for the filer; and(ii) The name and email address of any additional person whom the filer wishes to receive electronic notification of documents electronically served in the action, as defined in UTCR 21.010(7). If a lawyer enters a client's name and contact information as an other service contact under this subsection, then the lawyer is deemed to have consented for purposes of Rule of Professional Conduct 4.2 to delivery to the client of documents electronically served by other filers in the action.(c) A filer is responsible for updating any contact information for any person whom the filer has entered in the electronic filing system as either a service contact for a party or as an other service contact in an action.(d) A filer may seek court approval to remove a person entered by another filer as an other service contact in an action if the person does not qualify as an other service contact under UTCR 21.010(7).(3) Selecting Service Contacts and Other Service Contacts When preparing an electronic filing submission with electronic service, a filer is responsible for selecting:

The email contains a hyperlink to access the document or documents that have been filed electronically. Transmission of the email by the electronic filing system to the selected service contacts in the action constitutes service.
(5) Completion and Time of Electronic Service Electronic service is complete when the electronic filing system sends the email to the selected service contacts in the action.
