So my colleague on the other side recently said that he refuses to “acknowledge that fax is still a thing.”
Fax is still very much a thing, at least here in the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Rules require me to send a copy of all documents filed in state court pleadings either:
By postal mail. (This takes forever and has no tracking.)
Through the attorney’s mailbox in the Prothonotary’s office. (Do they even have mailboxes for attorneys in courthouses in California?)
Or by fax. (Clearly the superior option. No spam filters, no lack of a reply, and instant confirmation that transmission was successful.)
