A subpoena is a type of a court order. Court orders, known as writs, can be for a whole range of items. A subpoena is a specific type of court order compelling a witness to give a statement or to appear in court to testify. Court orders specifically compel a person or the government to conduct a specific task. Certain court orders, known as injunctions, are written to prevent certain people or the government from performing a certain task or action.

What is an order to a person in a law court called?
If a court is communicating with you, there are any number of documents that can be considered orders of the court. A summons orders you to appear in court; an injunction orders you to refrain from certain acts. Language contained in a court paper to you that requires you to do or not to do something is an order of the court. The court (i.e., a judge), during the proceeding of a case can make various written or verbal orders to a defendant (also called a respondent). These orders can be titled in various ways, not necessarily with the word "order" in the title. A judgment issued at the end of a case is an order. If you fail to do (or not do) what a judge orders, you can be found in contempt of court. Many states now issue orders of contempt immediately if you fail to pay a traffic fine by the due date. Don't fool around with the court. Your inaction when ordered to do something by a court can wind up on your permanent record.
