Dear Ms. Compton:

As I anticipated in my early letter, I have obtained an Order from the Court authorizing me to serve the attached subpoena on AT&T Internet. A hard copy will follow in the U.S. Mail as I understand your policy permits/requires.

If you would like an electronic copy of the attachment so the information can easily be copied, I would be more than happy to provide one.

If obj ection is made, the party serving the subpoena shall not be entitled to inspect, copy, test, or sample the materials or inspect the premises except pursuant to an order of the court by which the subpoena was issued, If objection hac, 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, inspection, copying, testing, or sampling. Such an order to compel shall protect anyperson who is not a party or an officer of'a.party from significant expense resulting from the inspection, copying, testing, or sampling commanded.

(3) (A) On timelymotior., the court bywhich a subpoena was issued shall quas.r 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 mil es from the place where that person resides, is employed orregu larly transacts business in person, except that, subject to the provisions of clause (c)(3)(B)(iii) of this rule, such a person may in order to attend trial be commanded to travel from any such place within the state in which the hial is held;

(iii) requires a person who is not a party- or an officer of a party to incur substantial expense to travel more than 100 miles to attend trial, the court may, to protect a person subject

to or affected by the subpoena, quas.r or modify the subpoena or, if the party in whose behalf the subpoena is issued shows a substantial need for the testlmony or material that cannot be otherwise met without undue hardship and assures that the person to whom the subpoena is addressed will be reasor.ably compensated, the court may order appearance or production only upon specified conditions.

(d) DUTIES IN RESPOND1N(i TO SunpOENA.

(1) (A) 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 categori es in the dem and.

(B) Tfa subpoena does not speci fy the f011u or forms for producing el ectronicallystored informu.ion, a person responding to a subpoena must produce the information in a f011n or forms in which the person ordinarily maintains it or in a f01111 or f01111S that are reasonably usable.

(e) A person responding to a subpoena need not produce the same electronically stored information in more than one f01111.

(D) A person responding to a subpoena need not provide discovery of electror.ically stored information from sources that the person identifies as not reasonably accessible because of undue burden or cost. On motion to compel discovery or to quash, the person from whom discovery is sought must show that the information sought is not reasonably accessible because of undue burden or cost If that showing is made, the court may nonetheless order discovery from such sources if the recuesting party shows good cause, considering the Ih111tatiD11s of Rule 2o(b )(2)«("). The court may specify conditions for the discovery.

(2) (A) 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.

(B) If information is produced in response to a subpoena that is subject to a claim of privilege or of protection as hi al-preparation material, the person making the cl aim maynotify any party that received the information of the claim and the basis for it, After being notified, a party must promptly return, sequester, or destroy the specified information and any copies it has and may not use or disclose the information until the claim is resolved. A receiving party may promptly present the information to the court under seal for a determination of the claim. If the receiving party disclosed the information before being notified, it must take reasonable steps to retrieve it, The person who produced the information must preserve the information until the claim is resolved.

(e) CONTE\-jPT. Failure of any person without adequate excuse to obey a subpoena served upon that person may be deemed a contempt of the court from which the subpoena issued. An adequate cause for failure to obey exists when a subpoena purports to recuire a nonparty to attend or produce at a place not within the Ih111ts provided by clause (11) of subparagraph (c)(3)(A).
