(1) During the whole hearing before the Supreme Court, the appellant shall be presumed to have elected his address for service at the chambers of the counsel he briefed or of the one assigned to him officially.
(2) Where he has several advocates, notification or service on one of them shall be deemed sufficient unless he elected the chambers of the advocate to which all notifications and services should be addressed.
(3) However, where he has asked for legal aid, it shall be considered that his address for service shall be the address on his application for legal aid. If this address is not specified, the notification referred in section 483 shall be sent to the Mayor's office of the place of residence of the appellant, or to his place of work or to the registry of the Court of Appeal.

Where an official English or French text exists, we show it; where none does, we give
a translation, clearly marked as one and never presented as the official text. We make
every AI feature as accurate as we can, but it can be wrong and is not legal advice —
always check the cited official text.
