The following items listed below are necessary for Barclays Bank Delaware to fulfill your subpoena request. If all of the steps are not followed, the subpoena may be ruled non-compliant or fulfillment may be delayed.

  • Subpoena is domesticated in Delaware

    Civil subpoenas issued by a state court other than Delaware must be domesticated in Delaware in order for Barclays Bank Delaware to fulfill the request pursuant to Delaware Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act, Del. Code Ann. § 4311

     

    Documents responsive to the Subpoena are located in Delaware. Therefore, Barclays Bank Delaware can reply substantively only if the subpoena is domesticated in Delaware pursuant to the Delaware Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act, Del. Code Ann. § 4311 (the “Act”). Unless or until the subpoena is domesticated in New Castle County, Delaware, Barclays is compelled by state and federal law not to release responsive information. As an alternative, Barclays will accept a signed and notarized release from the account holder authorizing Barclays to release the account records to you.
