I received something called a “subpoena duces tecum” asking me to turn over University-related documents. How do I respond?
A. You should not respond and should not turn over any documents to anyone. You should immediately contact the Office of General Counsel, which is responsible for and handles all subpoenas pertaining to University documents. The Office of General Counsel will work with you to gather responsive documents, make appropriate objections, and, in some cases, seek a protective order to preserve the confidentiality of the documents requested.
