Subpoena For Documents: I have received a subpoena to turn over documents (subpoena duces tecum) relating to University business. What should I do?
Except as to subpoenas handled regularly by Human Resource, Payroll and the Registrar’s Office (which should be referred directly to those offices or entities), you should not turn over documents relating to the University without first consulting with the Office of Legal Counsel. You should, however, insure that any documents described in the subpoena are maintained for possible production. If you or your office has University documents responsive to the subpoena, you should immediately contact the Office of Legal Counsel and forward them a copy of the subpoena and documents.
