ELECTRONIC SERVICE
(1) Consent to Electronic Service and Withdrawal of Consent
(a) A filer who electronically appears in the action by filing a document through
the electronic filing system that the court has accepted is deemed to consent
to accept electronic service of any document filed by any other registered filer
in an action, except for any document that requires service under ORCP 7 or
that requires personal service.
(b) A filer who is dismissed as a party from the action or withdraws as the
attorney of record in the action may withdraw consent to electronic service by
removing the filer’s contact information as provided in subsection (2)(a) of this
rule.
(c) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, a filer may withdraw
consent to electronic service only upon court approval based on good cause
shown.
(2) Contact Information
(a) At the time of preparing the filer’s first electronic filing in the action, a filer
described in section (1) of this rule must enter in the electronic filing system
the name and service email address of the filer, designated as a service
contact on behalf of an identified party in the action. If the filer withdraws
consent to electronic service under subsection (1)(b) or (1)(c) of this rule,
then the filer must remove the filer’s name and service email address as a
designated service contact for a party.
(b) A filer described in subsection (1)(a) of this rule may enter in the electronic
filing system, as an other service contact in the action:
(i) An alternative email address for the filer; and
(ii) The name and email address of any additional person whom the filer
wishes to receive electronic notification of documents electronically
served in the action, as defined in UTCR 21.010(7). If an attorney
enters a client’s name and contact information as an other service
contact under this subsection, then the attorney is deemed to have
consented for purposes of Rule of Professional Conduct 4.2 to delivery
to the client of documents electronically served by other filers in the
action.
(c) A filer is responsible for updating any contact information for any person
whom the filer has entered in the electronic filing system as either a service
contact for a party or as an other service contact in an action.
(d) A filer may seek court approval to remove a person entered by another filer
as an other service contact in an action if the person does not qualify as an
other service contact under UTCR 21.010(7).
(3) Selecting Service Contacts and Other Service Contacts. When preparing an
electronic filing submission with electronic service, a filer is responsible for
selecting:
(a) The appropriate service contacts in the action, for the purpose of
accomplishing electronic service as required by law of any document being
electronically filed; and
(b) The appropriate other service contacts in the action, if any, for the purpose of
delivering an electronic copy of any document being electronically filed.
(4) Court Notification and Transmission Constituting Service. When the court accepts
an electronic document for filing under UTCR 21.060(1)(a), the electronic filing
system sends an email to the email address of each person whom the filer
selected as a service contact or other service contact under section (3) of this rule.
The email contains a hyperlink to access the document or documents that have
been filed electronically. Transmission of the email by the electronic filing system
to the selected service contacts in the action constitutes service.
(5) Completion and Time of Electronic Service. Electronic service is complete when
the electronic filing system sends the email to the selected service contacts in the
action.
(6) Service Other than by Electronic Means. The filing party is responsible for
accomplishing service in any manner permitted by the Oregon Rules of Civil
Procedure and for filing a proof of service with the court for the following
documents:
(a) A document required to be filed conventionally under this chapter;
(b) A document that cannot be served electronically on a party who appeared in
the action; and
(c) A document subject to a protective order.
