Records Production · Subpoena Processing

Your legal-demand inbox, answered properly.

A subpoena does not ask what industry you are in. It asks what records you hold and about whom, and it arrives with a statutory deadline attached. Processing it correctly is a legal function that most providers staff with whoever happens to have capacity.

The Two Failure Modes

Under-produce and you are in contempt. Over-produce and you are in court.

Every legal demand carries its own rules under state and federal law, its own deadline, and its own limits on what may lawfully be released. Missing the deadline is the failure everybody anticipates. Producing more than the process authorizes is the one that generates the lawsuit, and it is far easier to do by accident.

Both come from the same root: a request handled by someone whose actual job is something else, working from a template and a deadline rather than from the statute.

The requestor and the request both validated before anything is produced
Nothing over-produced, nothing missed
Invalid requests returned to the requesting party with the deficiencies documented
Subscriber notifications sent where statute or your policy requires
Court appearances handled by witness-stand-experienced analysts
From Served To Satisfied

What happens to a demand once it is ours.

Intake through delivery runs in a cloud-based case-management system, so the state of any request is a lookup rather than a question for whoever handled it.

Intake

Email and fax intake with cases created automatically, so a demand is on the clock from the moment it arrives rather than from when someone opens it.

Validate

Authority verified and scope read against the statute. An invalid demand goes back with its deficiencies written down.

Produce

Records retrieved and produced to the limits of what the process actually authorizes, and nothing beyond it.

Record

Every analyst action tracked and notated for audit review, with follow-up reminders so deadlines are never missed.

Every Process Type

Not all demands are subpoenas.

They arrive from different authorities under different statutes, and treating them alike is how a provider produces content against an order that only authorized call data.

Subpoenas

Subscriber records and call detail, the highest-volume demand type and the one most often mishandled by over-production.
