IMPORTANT: A document is considered to be "filed" only when it is actually received by PERC. See WAC 391-08-120.

Please note that pursuant to the Commission's decision in City of Mabton, Decision 9992-A (PECB), (May 7, 2008) the Commission's staff will not add an attorney or representative listed on a complaint or petition to the docket record, and will not serve that attorney or representative with Commission papers until a notice of appearance is filed. Even though a particular attorney or representative has historically represented a party, that attorney or representative will not be considered the representative of record by the agency until he or she files a notice of appearance.

For Complainants and Petitioners: An attorney or representative signing the form on behalf of a party is presumed to be appearing on the filing party's behalf and will be considered the representative of that complainant or petitioner. If the complainant or petitioner designates another attorney or representative as primary contact, that person must file a notice of appearance.

For Respondents: Until a notice of appearance is received by the agency, only the respondent's chief executive officer as listed in the enclosed notice of case filing will be served with papers by the Commission. It is the respondent's responsibility to notify us if it wishes to designate another individual as primary/default contact person.

Questions regarding case filing may be addressed to PERC by email or by telephone at (360) 570-7300.
