A Nebraska Subpoena (when issued pursuant to Neb. Rev. Stat. Sec. 25-1223(5) at the request of a state agency or a party allowed to proceed in form paupers) is a legal document issued by a court that requires a witness to appear in court and provide testimony or documents. It is a legally binding document that must be followed by the addressee. There are two types of Nebraska Subpoena when issued pursuant to Neb. Rev. Stat. Sec. 25-1223(5). The first is a Subpoena Ducks Cecum, which orders the recipient to bring specified documents or records to court. The second is a Subpoena Ad Testificandum, which requires the recipient to appear in court to testify. In either case, the Nebraska Subpoena must be signed by a county court clerk, and must include the name of the court, the case number, the name of the person to whom it is issued, the date of the hearing, and the time and place of the hearing. The recipient must be served with the Subpoena in person, and must be given reasonable notice prior to the hearing. Failure to comply with the Subpoena may result in a contempt of court charge.
