19Step 4: Serve the documents on respondents
Any time you submit a document to the Clerk of the Appellate Courts for filing, a copy must also
be provided to all other parties at or before the time of filing. This is called “service.”
Reminder: You must file the Petition for Writ of Certiorari and serve it on the respondents
by the deadline you calculated in Step 1, or your appeal will be dismissed.
☐
Choose your method of service (see instructions below).
General Instructions for “Service”
If a party has an attorney, you must serve the attorney rather than the party. If a party does
not have an attorney, you may serve that party directly.
There are three methods of service:
(1) In person (“personal service”): Have another person hand-deliver the document. The
person who hand-delivers the document must be 18 years or older and not a party to the
appeal. You cannot serve a party in person yourself.
(2) By mail: Deposit the documents, correctly addressed, in the U.S. Mail, with adequate
first-class postage. You can serve documents by mail yourself.
(3) Electronically: If you choose to file electronically using the appellate courts’ e-filing
system, E-MACS, you can serve the respondents electronically as well, if the
respondents are registered in E-MACS.
If the recipient consents to another method of delivery, such as email or fax, you could also
use that method for service.
To serve DEED, the documents can be either electronically served on DEED’s attorney
(currently Lee B. Nelson, Attorney Bar ID #000077999) or mailed to:
Dept. of Employment and Economic Development
E-200 First National Bank Building
332 Minnesota St.
St. Paul, MN 55101
For additional instructions on service, see
Minn. R. Civ. App. P. 125.02 and
125.03.
