Same Day Service for Domesticating Subpoenas in Baltimore, MD

When you serve a subpoena in a different state, you may have to follow a different set of rules. The subpoena domestication process can be tricky and lengthy, and may put your case in jeopardy. Two different jurisdictions mean two sets of legislative acts, Rules of Civil Procedure, and local processes. These differences mean it’s essential to work with a process server experienced in subpoena domestication so your Baltimore, Maryland, case isn’t derailed by a simple mistake.

How We Domesticate Subpoenas in Baltimore, MD

More than 40 states and the District of Columbia recognize the Uniform Interstate Deposition and Discovery Act (UIDDA). This act hopes to make the process of subpoena domestication more simple.

If you’re serving process to one of the states that recognizes the UIDDA, the domestication process takes place in three steps:

  • Issuing the subpoena: Under UIDDA, you submit your subpoena to a clerk in the state where the deposition or discovery is to take place. The clerk then issues that subpoena for service to line up with their local process and regulations.
  • Serving the subpoena: The subpoena is then served upon the party based upon the Rules of Civil Procedure in the state where it’s being served.
  • Deposition or Discovery: Once the subpoena has been served, you can move forward with the deposition, testimony, discovery, or records production in your case.

In states that have not yet adopted UIDDA, the domestication process is a bit different.

This process requires you to get an order, commission, stipulation, or letter rogatory from the trial court. A request then has to be made to the court where the subpoena is to be served, usually by filling out an application, submitting a petition, or sending related documents to the court.

The team at Torri’s Legal Services can make this process easier by helping you understand the complex laws and domestication process in the state where your documents are to be served, allowing you to correctly complete the process and avoid unnecessary delays.
