As amended through October 8, 2024
Section 4 - Electronic Service4.01. Automatic Service by E-Filing System. Upon the receipt of an e-filed document, the e-filing system will automatically generate and send by e-mail a notice of filing along with the document to all registered users participating in the case. This automatically generated notice shall constitute proper service of the e-filed document on those registered users and shall have the same legal effect as service of a paper document under Tenn. R. App. P. 20. Independent service, either by paper or otherwise, need not be made on any registered user receiving e-service. Attorneys and self-represented parties who did not receive e-service must be served by the e-filer through the conventional means of service set forth in Tenn. R. App. P. 20.4.02. E-Service of Documents Filed by the Court. The clerk's e-service on a registered user of a notice, order, opinion, or judgment filed by the court shall constitute proper service and shall satisfy the notice requirements of the Tennessee Rules of Appellate Procedure, including the mailing requirements of Tenn. R. App. P. 5(c), 23, and 38.
