To be a valid subpoena a person has to be personally served with a subpoena. If you only received a subpoena through the mail it is not a valid subpoena unless the party serving the subpoena follows up after the subpoena is mailed and speaks to the person who the subpoena is for via telephone and obtains “identifying information” such as their drives license or social security number. What this means is you do not legally have to come to court per California law unless the subpoena has been served in a legal manner. If you have questions about whether you have been validly served with a subpoena contact Wallin and Klarich at 877-466-5245
