The Resolution dated 9 July 1985 is further amended to read as follows:

All pleadings, motions and papers filed in court, whether personally or by mail, shall bear counsel's current IBP official receipt number and date of issue, otherwise, such pleadings, motions and papers may not be acted upon by the court, without prejudice to whatever disciplinary action the court may take against the erring counsel who shall likewise be required to comply with the requirement within five (5) days from notice.
