Subpoenas and Depositions on Written Questions

If you are an attorney, records retrieval service, or court clerk attempting to serve a subpoena, please mail it to:
University of the Incarnate Word
Attn: Office of General Counsel
4301 Broadway St.

The OGC will contact you upon receipt regarding next steps. Please note, the OGC does not accept service of subpoenas electronically or through this website.
