What excuses can be used to get out of a subpoena?
Once a subpoena has been properly served, there is not much that one can do to legally elude their responsibility to the court system. However, the operative word is "properly."

Individuals who serve subpoenas must be able to testify to a judge that they indeed served the subpoena properly (they must be able to verify that the documents reached their intended recipient).

Where can a summons or subpoena be served?
In many courts a summons may be served by mail under certain conditions, but a subpoena must be served personally. Whether any particular court allows service by mail will be found by reading that court's rules of civil procedure. A common method of service of a summons and complaint by mail is to send one copy using certified mail, return receipt requested, together with one copy sent by ordinary mail simultaneously. The reason is the certified mail could possibly not be picked up leaving doubt as to whether it was delivered. This is cured by the simultaneous ordinary mailing which goes to the house without need for signature. If the ordinary mailing does not come back, that is proof enough that the address is good and the paperwork did get through. A plaintiff still has to submit proof that the mailing was done according to the court rules before a default judgment may be entered if the defendant fails to answer the complaint. Court rules in virtually every court require a subpoena to be served personally.
