M.R. Prob. P. 92.4

(a) Registration required. Any person who is permitted or required

under Rule 92.3 to file electronically must register by obtaining a user name and

password through the electronic filing system website in accordance with

92.4(b) or (c). Registration constitutes consent to electronic service of all

documents or information filed in accordance with these rules.

(b) Method of registration by attorneys and Unrepresented Parties.

An attorney in good standing in the State of Maine, any other person who is

permitted to file documents electronically, or an Unrepresented Party who elects

to do so, may register on the electronic filing system website by submitting all

information required by the Probate Court on the registration screens displayed

on the website, including: (1) his or her mailing address; (2) his or her Bar

number; (3) his or her billing information; and (4) up to three e-mail addresses,

one of which is an e-mail account currently maintained by the attorney. The

addresses provided shall be listed on the probate website and are the addresses

to which all service, notice, or other communication submitted must be sent.

Once an attorney has become a Registered Filer pursuant to this subdivision in

any matter, he or she shall remain a Registered Filer for all matters in the

Probate Court until he or she terminates his or her registration pursuant to Rule

92.4(h).

(c) Method of registration by out-of-state attorneys and other filers.

An attorney in good standing in another jurisdiction who is admitted pro hac vice

under applicable rules of procedure or administrative orders and any other

person who is required under Rule 92.3 to file documents electronically must

register on the electronic filing system website by submitting all information

required by the Probate Court on the registration screens displayed on the

website, including (1) his or her mailing address; (2) his or her billing

information; and (3) up to three e-mail addresses, one of which is an e-mail

account currently maintained by the applicant. The addresses provided shall be

listed on the Probate website in connection with the docket number assigned to

that matter, must be listed on all filings by that Registered Filer and are the

addresses to which all service, notice, or other communication submitted must

be sent. A Registered Filer under this subdivision (c) shall remain a Registered

Filer, as defined by the docket number (including all sub-matter numbers

thereunder) assigned to that matter.

(d) Duties of Registered Filer. A Registered Filer shall, in any matter in

which the filer has appeared in accordance with the applicable rules of

procedure and has submitted his or her user name and password:

(1) File documents electronically as provided in Rule 92.5 and access or

download any such documents remotely;

(2) Access or download documents, as provided in Rule 92.10, which have

been filed by any other party or the court.

(e) Use of agents. An attorney who is a Registered Filer may permit an

associated attorney or legal assistant to file documents under the Registered

Filer’s user name and password. The Registered Filer is responsible for all such

filings.

(f) Filings by court personnel. Judges and other authorized court

personnel or officers may file court-generated documents and access or

download documents that have been filed in any matter without becoming a

Registered Filer.

(g) Reports. A Guardian ad litem, visitor, psychologist, physician or

mediator who are required to file a report in a proceeding, may file court-generated forms and access or download forms that are required to be filed in

that matter without becoming a Registered Filer.

(h) Unregistering. A Registered Filer may “unregister” as a Registered

Filer by deactivating his or her account on the Electronic Filing System.

(i) Updating contact information. It is the responsibility of a Registered

Filer to maintain updated contact information (mailing addresses, e-mail

addresses, etc.) in the electronic filing system.

(j) Required unregistration. In the case of a Maine attorney who is

inactive, retired, disbarred or suspended, such attorney shall be required to

withdraw as a Registered Filer under Rule 92.4(h).
