You should not ignore the subpoena. You may be held in contempt of court if you fail to respond. Immediately contact a Florida attorney to advise you regarding this matter. Under certain circumstances your physical appearance may be excused, but only after communicating with the party that served the subpoena and preferaby through an attorney.
Best of luck

Suggest you contact a lawyer Florida to review this matter. I do not believe the subpoena has jurisdiction over you, but I or anyone else would need to review all the circumstances.
