Legal Question in Business Law in Nevada

Bank subpoena

If the subpoena for production of bank records does not indicate the period or dates, can the bank call the requesting party to identify the periods the records needed. Or, does it need to be in writing from the court.

Then, Can the requesting party give the dates that are not approved by the court?

In this case, the court has approved production of documents for specific years only. However, the opposing party by way of omitting those specific years in the subpoena has authorized over the phone the dates past the court order. I see here both the bank without any official written request, provided the documents and the opposing council violating the specific dates have violated my privacy. Am I correct?

Re: Bank subpoena

You need to discuss it with the attorney seeking the bank records. If he does not change it for specific dates, you need to file a Motion for a Protective Order. The judge would then limit the amount of the records or find them in contempt if they violated the dates past the court order.
