North Carolina General Statutes § 1-567.33 Receipt of written communications or submissions

(a)        Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, any written communication or submission is deemed to have been received if it is delivered to the addressee personally or if it is delivered at the addressee's place of business, domicile or mailing address and the communication or submission is deemed to have been received on the day it is so delivered.  Delivery by facsimile transmission shall constitute valid receipt if the communication or submission is in fact received.

(b)        If none of the places referred to in subsection (a) can be found after making reasonable inquiry, a written communication or submission is deemed to have been received if it is sent to the addressee's last known place of business, domicile or mailing address by registered mail or any other means which provide a record of the attempt to deliver it.

(c)        The provisions of this Article do not apply to a written communication or submission relating to a court, administrative or special proceeding. (1991, c. 292.)
