Sec. A10-9. Subpoena – Form and issuance.
(a) For attendance of witnesses, every subpoena issued by the court shall state the name of the court and the title of the action, and shall command each person to whom it is directed to attend and give testimony at a time and place therein specified.
(b) A subpoena may also command the person to whom it is directed to produce the books, papers, documents, or tangible things designated therein; but the court, upon motion made promptly and in any event at or before the time specified in the subpoena for compliance therewith, may:
(1) Modify the subpoena if it is unreasonable and oppressive; or
(2) Condition denial of the motion upon the advancement by the person in whose behalf the subpoena is issued of the reasonable cost of producing the books, papers, documents or tangible things.
(c) Service. A subpoena may be served within the corporate limits of the city by an officer of the Topeka police department or by such other person as the municipal court judge may designate.
(d) Contempt. Failure by any person without adequate excuse to obey a subpoena served upon him may be deemed a contempt of the court. (C.O. 11 § 10, 12-31-67.)
