(a) Notice after service of process. When a person charged has been properly served with process

or has appeared before any court of this State or a Commissioner for any offense or

complaint, it shall be sufficient that notice of further proceedings be mailed to the last known

address with a copy to the bondsman, if any.

(b) Notices. Notice of the time, date and place of any proceeding shall be (1) given in Court, or

(2) sent by ordinary first-class mail to the last known addresses of the parties, or (3) served

personally, or (4) communicated in such other manner as this Court may direct. If any party

to a proceeding is represented by counsel who has entered an appearance in that proceeding,

copies of all notices given to the party shall also be given to counsel.
