A Tennessee Subpoena is a writ issued by a court in the state of Tennessee which orders a person to appear in court or produce documents for use in a court case. There are two types of Tennessee Subpoenas: a Subpoena Ducks Cecum, which orders the person to produce documents, and a Subpoena Ad Testificandum, which orders the person to appear in court to testify. Both types of subpoenas must be served on the person to whom they are directed and must contain specific information such as the date and time of the court hearing. Failure to comply with a Tennessee Subpoena may result in fines or other penalties.
