What is the difference between a subpoena and request?

What is the difference between a Subpoena and a Summons?

It is my kind and humble request

A "subpoena duces tecum." directs an individual to come to court and directs that certain items be brought with them. A 'regular' subpoena simply directs the individual to come to court.

There are several things regarding subpoenas. First off, you need to be in the discovery phase of a lawsuit. Then you file the subpoena request with the court and if the request is granted, it will be delivered in person. The article describes the process in more detail.

If the individual has some material information to contribute to your judicial hearing, you request that the court subpoena them on your behalf.

A request is when you ask, a command is when your demanding something

Typically subpoenas are issued during the discovery phase of a lawsuit. You or your lawyer will send the request for a subpoena to the court and if the request is granted, they will send it the person it is directed towards. You can subpoena people as witness or subpoena just evidence. The attached link explains more about the process.

A process server is the person that is actually physically required to hunt down a person and serve them a subpoena. That person must sign the document to show that they are 100 percent aware of the request for evidence or for the request to appear as a witness. But before this process happens, the side wishing to order a subpoena must file a request with the court.

The difference is when you demand for something you're not asking for it you're telling them for it. When you request for something, you are simple just asking for it.

A person could choose to ignore the subpoena. Unless they follow the appropriate laws to request that the subpoena be quashed, they could be punished for ignoring it.

duces tecum is a subpoena requesting documents; ad testificandum requests yourself in person.

No, they cannot. A subpoena is a legal request from law enforcement authorities which has to be obliged by all people to whom it is served. In this case, a bank has to oblige and share the savings account records of the customer who is mentioned in the subpoena. However, without a subpoena, the bank cannot and will not share customer details with others.

A subpoena is an order directed to an individual commanding him to appear in court on a certain day to testify or produce documents in a pending lawsuit. A summons is a paper issued by a court informing a person that a complaint has been filed against her.

A demand is almost like a NEED for something, while a request is just asking for something whether you need it or not.

Subpoena duces tecum is translated as, "Under penalty, produce (or, bring with)" the requested documents or other physical evidence. This request can be used for either depositions or court appearances.
