Ala. R. Crim. P. 34.4
Service and filing
Unless otherwise provided in these rules, notice of any hearings at which
the defendant’s presence is required shall be served on the defendant, and, if the
defendant is represented by counsel, also upon counsel. As to all other notices or
documents, where the defendant is represented by counsel, service shall be made
upon the attorney of record. Service upon the defendant and the attorney shall be
accomplished by delivering or by mailing copies to their last known addresses, or,
if no address is known, by leaving copies with the clerk of the court. Reasonable
alternative methods of service on the attorney may be approved by the court.
History
[Amended effective March 1, 1994.] Committee Comments There are at present no real guidelines covering service of motions and requests in Alabama criminal practice. Rule 5, A.R.Civ.P., is adequate to handle this procedure.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
