SIGNATURE OF SERVER
ADDRESS OF SERVER
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 45 (c), (d), and (e), as amended on December 1, 2007:
(c) PROTECTING A PERSON SUBJECT TO A SUBPOENA.
(1) Avoiding Undue Burden or Expense; Sanctions. A party or attorney responsible
for issuing and serving a subpoena must take reasonable steps to avoid imposing undue
burden or expense on a person subject to the subpoena. The issuing court must enforce
this duty and impose an appropriate sanction — which may include lost earnings and
reasonable attorney's fees — on a party or attorney who fails to comply.
(2) Command to Produce Materials or Permit Inspection.
(A) Appearance Not Required. A person commanded to produce documents,
electronically stored information, or tangible things, or to permit the inspection of
premises, need not appear in person at the place of production or inspection unless also
commanded to appear for a deposition, hearing, or trial.
(B) Objections. A person commanded to produce documents or tangible things
or to permit inspection may serve on the party or attorney designated in the subpoena a
written objection to inspecting, copying, testing or sampling any or all of the materials or
to inspecting the premises — or to producing electronically stored information in the
form or forms requested. The objection must be served before the earlier of the time
specified for compliance or 14 days after the subpoena is served. If an objection is made,
the following rules apply:
(i) At any time, on notice to the commanded person, the serving party may
move the issuing court for an order compelling production or inspection.
(ii) These acts may be required only as directed in the order, and the order
must protect a person who is neither a party nor a party's officer from significant expense
resulting from compliance.
(3) Quashing or Modifying a Subpoena.
(A) When Required. On timely motion, the issuing court must quash or modify
a subpoena that:
(i) fails to allow a reasonable time to comply;
(ii) requires a person who is neither a party nor a party's officer to travel
more than 100 miles from where that person resides, is employed, or regularly transacts
business in person — except that, subject to Rule 45(c)(3)(B)(iii), the person may be
commanded to attend a trial by traveling from any such place within the state where the
trial is held;
(iii) requires disclosure of privileged or other protected matter, if no
exception or waiver applies; or
(iv) subjects a person to undue burden.
(B) When Permitted. To protect a person subject to or affected by a subpoena,
the issuing court may, on motion, quash or modify the subpoena if it requires:
(i) disclosing a trade secret or other confidential research, development, or
commercial information;
(ii) disclosing an unretained expert's opinion or information that does not
describe specific occurrences in dispute and results from the expert's study that was not
requested by a party; or
(iii) a person who is neither a party nor a party's officer to incur substantial
expense to travel more than 100 miles to attend trial
(C) Specifying Conditions as an Alternative. In the circumstances described in
Rule 45(c)(3)(B), the court may, instead of quashing or modifying a subpoena, order
appearance or production under specified conditions if the serving party:
(i) shows a substantial need for the testimony or material that cannot be
otherwise met without undue hardship; and
(ii) ensures that the subpoenaed person will be reasonably compensated.
(d) DUTIES IN RESPONDING TO A SUBPOENA.
(1) Producing Documents or Electronically Stored Information. These procedures
apply to producing documents or electronically stored information:
(A) Documents. A person responding to a subpoena to produce documents must
produce them as they are kept in the ordinary course of business or must organize and label
them to correspond to the categories in the demand.
(B) Form for Producing Electronically Stored Information Not Specified. If a
subpoena does not specify a form for producing electronically stored information, the
person responding must produce it in a form or forms in which it is ordinarily maintained or
in a reasonably usable form or forms.
(C) Electronically Stored Information Produced in Only One Form. The person
responding need not produce the same electronically stored information in more than one
form.
(D) Inaccessible Electronically Stored Information. The person responding need
not provide discovery of electronically stored information from sources that the person
identifies as not reasonably accessible because of undue burden or cost. On motion to
compel discovery or for a protective order, the person responding must show that the
information is not reasonably accessible because of undue burden or cost. If that showing is
made, the court may nonetheless order discovery from such sources if the requesting party
shows good cause, considering the limitations of Rule 26(b)(2)(C). The court may specify
conditions for the discovery.
(2) Claiming Privilege or Protection.
(A) Information Withheld. A person withholding subpoenaed information under a
claim that it is privileged or subject to protection as trial-preparation material must:
(i) expressly make the claim; and
(ii) describe the nature of the withheld documents, communications, or tangible
things in a manner that, without revealing information itself privileged or protected, will
enable the parties to assess the claim.
(B) Information Produced. If information produced in response to a subpoena is
subject to a claim of privilege or of protection as trial-preparation material, the person
making the claim may notify any party that received the information of the claim and the
basis for it. After being notified, a party must promptly return, sequester, or destroy the
specified information and any copies it has; must not use or disclose the information until
the claim is resolved; must take reasonable steps to retrieve the information if the party
disclosed it before being notified; and may promptly present the information to the court
under seal for a determination of the claim. The person who produced the information must
preserve the information until the claim is resolved.
(e) CONTEMPT.
The issuing court may hold in contempt a person who, having been served, fails
without adequate excuse to obey the subpoena. A nonparty's failure to obey must be
excused if the subpoena purports to require the nonparty to attend or produce at a place
outside the limits of Rule 45(c)(3)(A)(ii).
