similar papers shall be served upon each of the parties.

(b) Service: How Made. Whenever under these Rules or by an order of

the court service is required or permitted to be made upon a party represented

by an attorney, the service shall be made upon the attorney unless service upon

the party is ordered by the court. Service upon the attorney or upon a party

shall be made in the manner provided in civil actions.

General to receive notices from a court. Changes in designations of attorneys

to receive notice must be filed with the Office of Information Technology. If

an attorney for the State other than the designee has entered his or her

arrangements with the court by filing an appropriate request in the case for

notice. The request must include the attorney’s Maine Bar Registration

Number.
