FAQ
Don't Ignore a Witness Subpoena A witness subpoena is a court order requiring you to appear at the stated place and time, even if you do not see a judge's signature on the document.
A subpoena for testimony may be served by any suitable person over 18 years of age, by giving the witness a copy thereof, or by leaving a copy at the witness's dwelling house or usual place of abode with some person of suitable age and discretion then residing therein.
In Washington, the issuing party of a deposition subpoena must give the non-party deponent reasonable notice in writing at least five business days before the deposition. Failure to give timely notice may result in sanctions in the deponent's favor, but it is not grounds for quashing the subpoena.
Subpoenas that are procedurally defective are usually invalid and professionals do not have to respond to them. Federal courts have limited reach across state lines and are limited in how far they can force a witness to travel to appear for testimony.
Witness fees are $40.00 per day plus transportation reimbursement.
In the state of Washington, a subpoena or subpoena duces tecum accompanies a Notice of Deposition, which is written notice to all parties in a lawsuit that one party intends to take a deposition. A deposition is oral or written testimony given by a witness in advance of a trial or hearing.
A witness subpoenaed to attend in a civil case is dismissed and excused from further attendance as soon as the witness has given testimony in chief and has been cross-examined thereon, unless either party moves in open court that the witness remain in attendance and the court so orders.
