Question

The driver of a car filed a civil action in federal district court against the owner and operator of a truck that collided with her vehicle. The driver has reason to believe that the truck was serviced at a particular auto repair shop shortly before the accident. The driver wants to see any records the repair shop has regarding the truck's servicing because a failure to properly service the truck could help prove the truck owner's liability. The driver requested the service records from the truck owner, but the truck owner has no service records in his possession. Can the driver obtain the truck's service records from the repair shop

The driver can obtain the truck's service records from the repair shop by serving on the repair shop a subpoena requiring that the shop produce the documents for inspection.

A subpoena simply means a written order that is used to compel someone to give testimony regarding a subject usually before a court. For the request of documents from parties, a request for production will be used while the nonparties require subpoenas.
