Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Subpoena Bank Records and Tax Returns (out of state)

How can I go about ordering a subpoena for bank records and tax returns for someone who lives in Texas and I live in Minnesota? The court proceedings are being handled in MN. This evidence is needed to prove receipt of ''net income from a trust'' that has not been disclosed to the court. Thank you for your help.

Minnesota has a policy on how to go about requesting documents. You need to follow that procedure.

Each bank has a department that deals with this sort of request. They will want a court order properly prepared that orders them to produce the information you want.

It takes some time to get this all done properly so don't wait until the last minute the request this information.

Best of luck to you.

If the bank wont comply with an order from the local court, hire a Texas lawyer to get a local Texas court issue a subpeona for the records in Texas and then take them back. This is some what complex but it can be done. I will be happy to help if needed.
