I have had a number of recent inquiries in my practice regarding issuance of foreign subpoenas in Delaware. As a follow up to Leslie's post on the Delaware Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act, here is a list of items needed for filing a request to issue a foreign subpoena in Delaware pursuant to the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act:
- Cover Letter: indicating where the signed and sealed subpoena should be sent or a contact name and number.
- Subpoena: Original and one copy of:
- Foreign Subpoena; and
- Delaware Subpoena which includes the names, address and telephone numbers of all counsel of record in the proceeding to which the subpoena relates and of any pro se party (see form here).
- Filing Fee: $75.00 check payable to Prothonotary Office.
- Filing Location: The county in which the discovery is sought to be conducted.
