Notices required under the provisions of this chapter, unless otherwise provided herein or by rules of court promulgated by the Supreme Court, shall be deemed sufficient if given in writing and delivered to the person entitled thereto by an agent of the Commissioner, or sent by ordinary or certified mail to the last address of the person appearing upon the records of the Commissioner.
