A subpoena is a court order demanding physical evidence or appearance at court to provide testimony.
When the suspect eventually named several people, he was told he could be comforted by the fact that all of them were already under subpoena to appear.
Failure to comply with a subpoena results in a penalty (the Latin sub poena literally means under penalty). An order to present evidence is termed a subpoena duces tecum, while a subpoena ad testificandum summons the recipient to appear in court to provide testimony.
Soudní obsílka je rozhodnutí soudu, které požaduje fyzické důkazy nebo účast u soudu kvůli svědectví.
Když podezřelý nakonec několik lidí jmenoval, řekli mu, že by ho mohlo uklidnit, že už všichni obdrželi soudní obsílku k účasti.
Nevyhovění obsílce je trestáno (latinská fráze sub poena znamená doslova pod trestem). Nařízení pro předložení podkladů se nazývá subpoena duces tecum, a subpoena ad testificandum označuje obsílku pro účast u soudu pro podání svědectví.
