Keeping the court informed of current contact information is essential for due process. When a party moves or changes their phone number, the court and the other party need to know where to reach them so notices, orders, and other filings are delivered correctly and timely.

The best answer reflects that both sides share responsibility for updating the court with any change of address or telephone number. If updates aren’t made, important notices could go astray, deadlines could be missed, or orders could be issued without proper notice.

Other options don’t fit because: updates aren’t limited to just one side, addresses should be kept current to ensure proper service and communication, and it isn’t enough to leave the court to only the attorney to handle—parties themselves must ensure the court has current information (and counsel should be aware of changes).
