Overview of the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act

The Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act, which went into effect on June 1, 2009, becomes relevant when someone in Nebraska obtains information from a person located outside the state. The act outlines the procedures for filing a Nebraska foreign subpoena in order to obtain information from a person or entity located outside of the state. For example, if a Nebraska resident subpoenas information from an attorney in another state, the attorney may have a conflict of interest in responding to the Nebraska subpoena because they have an existing relationship with the person being subpoenaed. The act aims to address this type of situation by allowing a Nebraska resident to file a request for a Nevada foreign subpoena to compel the attorney to respond to the request. In order to file a Nevada foreign subpoena, the person must obtain a copy of the appropriate Nevada court forms and follow the steps outlined in this article.

Obtaining the Necessary Forms

The first step in filing a Nebraska foreign subpoena is obtaining the proper forms. The act requires a person who files a foreign subpoena to file a foreign subpena, return receipt, and copy of the Nevada forms. The subpena and return receipt are used to provide service, in addition to being filed with the court. The copy of the Nevada forms must be filed in the court where the defendant is located. Because the act allows a Nebraska resident to file a Nevada foreign subpena, the person must obtain the appropriate forms from the Nevada Supreme Court’s website. The forms can be obtained by accessing the court’s website and locating the section on forms. The subpena and return receipt must be filed in the Nebraska court where the person is seeking information, while the copy of the Nevada forms must be filed in the Nevada court where the information is being sought.

Submitting the Forms to the Appropriate Court

Once the forms are obtained, the person must take the subpena, return receipt, and Nevada forms to the court where the information is being sought and file the proper forms. The subpena, return receipt, and copy of the Nevada forms must be filed in the Nebraska court, while the information contained in the Nevada forms must be filed in the Nevada court. The subpena and return receipt must be filed using the appropriate subpena and return receipt forms, which can be found on the Nebraska Supreme Court’s website. Once the subpena and return receipt are filed, the Nebraska Supreme Court will provide a receipt for the subpena and return receipt, allowing the person to proceed to the next step. The copy of the Nevada forms must be filed in the Nevada court using the appropriate forms, which can be found on the Nevada Supreme Court’s website. Once the copy of the Nevada forms is filed, the information will be sent to the Nevada court.

Understanding the Filing Fees and Service Requirements

The next step is to understand the filing fees and service requirements for both the subpena, return receipt, and Nevada forms. The subpena, return receipt, and copy of the Nevada forms must be filed in the Nebraska court, while the information contained in the Nevada forms must be filed in the Nevada court. The Nebraska filing fee for a foreign subpoena is $300. The fee for filing a Nevada foreign subpena is $300. The Nevada service requirement is 7 days, which is the same requirement as with a Nevada Nevada subpena. There are no additional service requirements for Nebraska. The subpena and return receipt must be filed using the appropriate forms, which can be found on the Nebraska Supreme Court’s website. Once the subpena and return receipt are filed, the Nebraska Supreme Court will provide a receipt for the subpena and return receipt, allowing the person to proceed to the next step. The copy of the Nevada forms must be filed in the Nevada court using the appropriate forms, which can be found on the Nevada Supreme Court’s website. Once the copy of the Nevada forms is filed, the information will be sent to the Nevada court.
