A Subpoena to Produce Documents, Information, or Objects or to Permit Inspection of Premises in a Bankruptcy Case (or Adversary Proceeding) is a court order issued by the bankruptcy court or an adversary proceeding to compel a party to provide documents, information, or objects or to permit inspection of premises in a bankruptcy case or adversary proceeding. The document or object that is subpoenaed must be relevant to the case and must relate to a claim or defense. The subpoena may be issued to a party or non-party. There are two types of Subpoena to Produce Documents, Information, or Objects or to Permit Inspection of Premises in a Bankruptcy Case (or Adversary Proceeding): Subpoena Ducks Cecum and Subpoena Ad Testificandum. A Subpoena Ducks Cecum requires the recipient to produce specific documents or objects, such as financial records, emails, or other documents.
