Please see NRAP 24 for more information.

Copies of all documents sent to the court for filing must also be served on all other parties in the appeal. Such service should be made at the same time the document is sent for filing, and may be accomplished by mailing a copy of the document to the other party (if the other party has an attorney, the document should be mailed to the attorney).
