When the constitutionality of an act of the legislature is questioned in any appellate proceeding to which the state or an officer, agency or employee of the state is not a party, the party asserting the unconstitutionality of the act shall promptly file and serve on the attorney general notice of that assertion. Service of this notice on the attorney general may be effected by any means authorized by these rules. The attorney general has the opportunity to intervene within 30 days of that notice.
