7. To object to a subpoena for one of the reasons stated in paragraph 6, you must
provide notice in writing of your objection to the party or attorney serving the subpoena
before the date specified in the subpoena for you to respond. If your objection is based
on either paragraph 6(c), 6(d), or 6(e), your written objection must describe the nature
of the documents, communications or things that you object to producing with sufficient
specificity to enable the party or attorney serving the subpoena to contest your
objection. You must also comply with the subpoena to the extent that it commands
production or inspection of materials to which you do not object.

upon you must obtain a court order to compel you to comply with the subpoena. The
party must give you a copy of its motion for a court order and notice of any hearing
before the court. You have the right to file a response to the motion with the court and
a right to attend any hearing. After you make a timely written objection, you have no
obligation to comply with the subpoena until the party serving the subpoena has
served you with a court order that compels you to comply.

documents or tangible things, or to permit inspection of premises, and to appear to give
testimony at trial, at a hearing, or at a deposition, you may object to the production or
inspection of documents or tangible things, or inspection of premises, by following the
procedure identified in paragraph 7. Even though you object to production or inspection
of documents or tangible things, or inspection of premises, you must appear in person
at the trial, at the hearing or at the deposition unless you obtain an order of the court
by following the procedures identified in paragraph 4.
