Service of subpoena

885.03 Service of subpoena. Any subpoena may be served by any person by exhibiting and reading it to the witness, or by giving the witness a copy thereof, or by leaving such copy at the witness’s abode. History: 1993 a. 486. Section 972.11 (1) points in two different directions. On the one hand, the rules of civil procedure are applicable generally to criminal proceedings. On the other hand, this chapter is to apply in all criminal proceedings. Because s. 972.11 (1) explicitly references it, this chapter is the more specific textual provision. State v. Wilson, 2017 WI 63, 376 Wis. 2d 92, 896 N.W.2d 682, 15-0671.
