Re: Civil Supeana

Someone else -- preferably a registered process server -- should personally serve the subpoena. You might have to tender a check for mileage to and from court and the flat fee for testimony. Have it served as soon as possible, because others might have to rearrange their schedules to accommodate their court appearances.
