A Subpoena to Produce Documents, Information, or Objects in a Criminal Case is a court order issued by a prosecutor or a court that requires a person or entity to produce specified documents, information, or objects. There are two types of Subpoenas to Produce Documents, Information, or Objects in a Criminal Case: a Grand Jury Subpoena and a Trial Subpoena. A Grand Jury Subpoena is an order issued by a court to an individual or entity to appear before a grand jury and produce documents, information, or objects. This type of subpoena is used to gather evidence or to compel testimony from witnesses. A Trial Subpoena is an order issued by a court to an individual or entity to appear at a criminal trial and produce documents, information, or objects. This type of subpoena is used to obtain evidence relevant to the case. In both cases, the person or entity served with the subpoena must comply with the order or face legal consequences. Failure to comply with a subpoena may result in the person or entity being found in contempt of court and may lead to criminal charges.
