New York Local Civil Rule 12.1 is a regulation that governs the service of papers in a civil case. The rule states that the service of papers must be made personally or by mail, registered or certified mail, or by commercial delivery service. Papers may also be served by facsimile transmission, if available, with a proof of service form, or by delivery to an agent authorized by law to accept service. The notice provided under New York Local Civil Rule 12.1 states that all papers served in the action must be served on all parties to the case. It further states that all papers must be served in accordance with the rules of civil procedure, and that failure to do so may result in the dismissal of your papers and/or other sanctions. New York Local Civil Rule 12.1 & Notice comes in two forms: the form for service of papers and the form for notice to all parties.
