LAC 1:III.513. Notices of Hearings; Orders, Decisions and Other Documents (formerly § 309)

A. All notices of hearings, orders, decisions and other documents sent by DAL shall be sent by postal mail or transmitted by electronic means, unless otherwise required by law. 1. If a party is not represented by counsel, notices are sent to the party’s last known physical, postal, or e-mail address as filed in the adjudicatory record. Failure to maintain a current physical, postal, or e-mail address on file with DAL may result in dismissal of a case for failure to appear. 2. If a party is represented by counsel, notices shall be sent to the counsel of record only. B. If a party provides DAL with an e-mail address, DAL may elect to send all notices, orders, decisions and other documents to the party exclusively at the e-mail address provided. Parties may, at any time, opt out of being served by e-mail, but the opt-out will not be effective until communicated to DAL and all other parties in writing. Parties receiving communications from DAL exclusively by e-mail shall: 1. notify DAL of any change of e-mail address in writing; and 2. ensure that e-mail filters and settings allow the delivery of e-mails from DAL.
