A:
Form SUBP-025 is used when requesting business records through a deposition subpoena, according to California Code of Civil Procedure section 2020.010. It applies when you're seeking documents, electronically stored information, or tangible things from a non-party, not just answers or testimony.
If you're seeking written responses or testimony, a different form may be needed, such as SUBP-015 for a witness deposition. The SUBP-025 is specifically for obtaining records only, not for questioning or obtaining other types of information directly from a non-party.
You should address the form to the non-party who holds the records you are requesting, ensuring that the proper notice and copy of the subpoena are also served to all relevant parties in the case.
