Initial Pleading By Party -- Listing Of Representatives (Rule 41)

01. Designation of Representative Required. The initial pleading of each party to a proceeding (be it an application, petition, complaint, motion, or answer) must name the party’s representative(s) for service and state each representative’s mailing and electronic (if available) address for purposes of receipt of all official documents. Service of documents on the named representative(s) is valid service upon the party for all purposes in that proceeding. If no person is explicitly named as a party’s representative, the person signing the pleading will be considered the party’s representative if the person meets the requirement of Rule 43. (3-31-22) 02. Number of Representatives. No more than two (2) persons may be designated as a party’s representatives for purposes of service or receipt of official documents unless otherwise authorized by order. The Commission may condition such an order upon reasonable terms concerning payment of copying costs and mailing costs to additional representatives. (3-31-22)
