transmission and shall continue to file documents through the other methods authorized by the

filing under Paragraph M of this rule.
(4) Unless exempted under Paragraph M of this rule, for any case pending or
filed in the Supreme Court on or after the effective date of this rule, the following attorneys shall
register with the EFS:
(a) any attorney required to file documents by electronic transmission
under this rule; and

checked email address for the EFS. The Court shall not be responsible for inoperable email
addresses or unread email sent from the EFS.
