The 2-341 rule in Maryland addresses the proper methods of serving legal documents when there are multiple defendants. This rule ensures clarity on how to notify all parties, especially in complex cases. By following this rule and issuing a Certificate of Service, you provide proof that all parties have been informed, which is essential for any legal proceedings.
In legal proceedings, a certificate of service is usually required to be filed with the clerk of courts as proof that copies of pleadings such as complaints, motions, and discovery requests have been officially served on the other parties to a lawsuit.
In most jurisdictions, an affidavit is used when a private, third party serves the documents, whereas a certificate of service is used by official process servers when serving any document and for attorney's and parties under Rule 5 after the original summons and complaint are served and filed.
