Do I have to appear after personally served with a subpoena here in California even though I live in Colorado?

Question

Do I have to appear after personally served with a subpoena here in California even though I live in Colorado?



Answer

If you were served with a California subpoena while you were in California, then the subpoena is lawful and you must obey it.



Answer

I disagree with Mr. Roach, in that it depends on what the subpoena was for. If it is a subpoena for you to appear in court, then he is right. If it is a discovery subpoena, then that may be a different matter depending on your relationship to the case and the parties.
