Clerk's Register of Federal and State Governmental Units
Register of Mailing Addresses of Federal and State Governmental Units
Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 5003(e) provides for the Clerk of the United States Bankruptcy Court to maintain a register of mailing addresses for federal and state governmental units.
To be listed in the Register, an appropriate official of the governmental unit must complete and submit a Request for Listing (in MS Word) for each address the governmental unit wishes to appear in the Register. The completed form must include the governmental unit's official name, its complete mailing address for service of process, a telephone number available for users of the Register who may have questions concerning the information listed, the date on which the request was submitted to the Court, and the title and signature of the requesting official.
Governmental units may have
multiple addresses listed in the Register. However, those
requesting the
listing of multiple addresses must submit a separate and
complete Request
for Listing (in MS
Word) for each address, and must include a brief statement,
subject to the approval of the Clerk, explaining to the users
of the Register the circumstances in which each address is
applicable for service of process.
A governmental unit whose address is already listed in the
Register may update its information at any
time by submitting a new and complete Request
for Listing (in MS
Word) . The Clerk shall publish a current Register annually
on each January 2nd, and may update the Register more often
as deemed appropriate by the Clerk.
