2022 Revised Notes

Service is required of all documents filed. Service is complete upon mailing. The method of service is by delivery or mailing, but not fax. Service that satisfies Rule 5, SCRCP, also satisfies this Rule. Service of documents may also be effectuated by methods specifically approved by the Court through administrative order. Parties who furnish an e-mail address to the Court consent to the service of documents issued by the Court via e-mail. The date of the e-mail is the date of service, and the burden is on a party contesting receipt to show otherwise.
