Text

(a) IN GENERAL. Unless otherwise provided by statute or these rules:

(1) notice of a filing must be given to all the parties in a case, interested persons in

decedent’s estate cases, and affected persons in all other cases as the court directs;

and

(2) notice may be given by sending the filing by first class mail postage prepaid to the

prescribed person.

(b) MODIFICATION OF NOTICE REQUIREMENTS. The court may modify the

requirements of notice under these rules when the number of the parties and affected

persons makes the time, labor, and expense of complying disproportionate to the

distributive shares of those having an interest in the matter.

COMMENT

In some cases, an individual who has requested notice may revoke the request for

notice. Cf. Super. Ct. Prob. R. 306.
