JUSTICE COURT RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, RULE 45(c) AND 45(d)
(c) PROTECTION OF PERSONS SUBJECT TO SUBPOENA.
(1) A party or an attorney responsible for the issuance and
service of a subpoena shall take reasonable steps to avoid imposing
undue burden or expense on a person subject to that subpoena. The
court on behalf of which the subpoena was issued shall enforce this
duty and impose upon the party or attorney in breach of this duty an
appropriate sanction, which may include, but is not limited to, lost
earnings and a reasonable attorney’s fee.
(2)(A) A person commanded to produce and permit
inspection and copying of designated books, papers, documents or
tangible things, or inspection of premises need not appear in person at
the place of production or inspection unless commanded to appear for
deposition, hearing or trial.
(2)(B) Subject to paragraph (d)(2) of this rule, a person
commanded to produce and permit inspection and copying may,
within 14 days after service of the subpoena or before the time
specified for compliance if such time is less than 14 days after
service, serve upon the party or attorney designated in the subpoena
written objection to inspection or copying of any or all of the
designated materials or of the premises. If objection is made, the
party serving the subpoena shall not be entitled to inspect and copy
the materials or inspect the premises except pursuant to an order of
the court by which the subpoena was issued. If objection has been
made, the party serving the subpoena may, upon notice to the person
commanded to produce, move at any time for an order to compel the
production. Such an order to compel production shall protect any

person who is not a party or an officer of a party from significant
expense resulting from the inspection and copying commanded.
(3)(A) On timely motion, the court by which a subpoena
was issued shall quash or modify the subpoena if it
(i) fails to allow reasonable time for compliance;
(ii) requires a person who is not a party or an
officer of a party to travel to a place more than 100 miles from the
place where that person resides, is employed or regularly transacts
business in person, except that such a person may in order to attend
trial be commanded to travel from any such place within the state in
which the trial is held, or
(iii) requires disclosure of privileged or other
protected matter and no exception or waiver applies, or
(iv) subjects a person to undue burden.
(3)(B) If a subpoena
(i) requires disclosure of a trade secret or other
confidential research, development, or commercial information, or
(ii) requires disclosure of an unretained expert’s
opinion or information not describing specific events or occurrences
in dispute and resulting from the expert’s study made not at the
request of any party, the court may, to protect a person subject to or
affected by the subpoena, quash or modify the subpoena or, if the
party in whose behalf the subpoena is issued shows a substantial need
for the testimony or material that cannot be otherwise met without
undue hardship and assures that the person to whom the subpoena is
addressed will be reasonably compensated, the court may order
appearance or production only upon specified conditions.
(d) DUTIES IN RESPONDING TO SUBPOENA
(1) A person responding to a subpoena to produce
documents shall produce them as they are kept in the usual course of
business or shall organize and label them to correspond with the
categories in the demand.
(2) When information subject to a subpoena is withheld on
a claim that it is privileged or subject to protection as trial preparation
materials, the claim shall be made expressly and shall be supported
by a description of the nature of the documents, communications, or
things not produced that is sufficient to enable the demanding party
to contest the claim.
