Serving an Out-of-State Subpoena in Arizona
Recent statistical reports indicate a 39% increase in civil filings in the US District Courts, reaching a total of 461,478 cases. With this substantial rise, the demand for interstate regulation and summoning witnesses has become more pronounced.
Fortunately, the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act (UIDDA) is in place to address this issue. Arizona was among the pioneering states to adopt this Act back in 2007.
How Does the UIDDA Work in Arizona?
The UIDDA facilitates the seamless request of a subpoena for individuals or entities holding crucial information for a claimant’s legal proceeding. It streamlines the subpoena request and issuance procedure to ensure the legal case proceeds without hindrance. In states where the UIDDA is implemented, claimants file for a subpoena with the court clerk.
Presently, 47 states have adopted the UIDDA, allowing easy domestication of foreign subpoenas. However, challenges may arise in states yet to adopt the Act, necessitating adherence to the laws of the trial and depository state when summoning out-of-state individuals.
