§ 801.313 - Subpena.

(a) On the request of a party and for good cause shown, a hearing officer may issue a subpena for the appearance of a witness or for the production of documentary evidence.

(b) A hearing officer may quash a subpena for good cause shown.

(c) The party at whose request a subpena is issued is responsible for arranging for service. The officer or person making service shall show the original subpena to the person served, read the subpena to him if he is unable to read, and deliver a copy of the subpena to him.

(d) When a U.S. Marshal or his deputy serves a subpena, he shall evidence the service by his return on the subpena. When someone other than a U.S. Marshal or his deputy serves a subpena, the person serving the subpena shall make an affidavit, stating the date, time, and the manner of service, and shall return the affidavit on, or with, the original subpena in accordance with the form thereon. When the U.S. Marshal, his deputy, or other person, as appropriate, cannot serve the subpena, he shall state his reason for the failure on the original subpena. When the person named in the subpena accepts service of the subpena in writing, no other evidence of return is necessary. The person responsible for serving a subpena shall return the original subpena, bearing or accompanied by the required return, affidavit, statement, or acceptance of service, to the officer presiding at the hearing at which the person subpenaed is required to appear.
