“By statute, a circuit court may quash or modify a subpoena for documents if the subpoena is unreasonable and oppressive.” (See Cnty. of Dane v. Pub. Serv. Comm'n of Wis. (2022) WI 61, 45.)
“And a subpoena, like any other discovery request, is limited to any nonprivileged matter that is relevant to any party's claim or defense.” (See id.)
“Wisconsin law authorizes the quashing of unreasonable and oppressive subpoenas. [Rhe court may . . . quash or modify the subpoena if it is unreasonable and oppressive.]” (See Cnty. of Dane v. Pub. Serv. Comm'n of Wis. (2022) WI 61, 46.)
“We review a motion to quash a subpoena for documents for an erroneous exercise of discretion.” (See Cnty. of Dane v. Pub. Serv. Comm'n of Wis. (2022) WI 61, 44.)
“A discretionary decision will be sustained if the circuit court has examined the relevant facts, applied a proper standard of law, and, using a demonstrated rational process, reached a conclusion that a reasonable judge could reach.” (See id.)
It is well settled that “upon a showing of good cause, sec. 804.01(3) authorizes a court to protect a party from discovery that would result in annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, or undue burden or expense.” (See Vincent Vincent, Inc. v. Spacek (1981) 102 Wis. 2d 266, 271-72.)
It is also well settled that “given the importance of this right, a motion to quash a subpoena should not be granted lightly. In Green Bay Newspaper v. Circuit Court, the supreme court set forth the standards governing consideration of such motions: If the defendant can show a reasonable probability that the subpoenaed witnesses' testimony will lead to competent, relevant, material and exculpatory evidence, such a showing is sufficient to require a denial of the motion to quash.” (113 Wis.2d 411, 421-22, 335 N.W.2d 367, 373 (1983).)
