I subpoenaed several nonparty fact witnesses for their depositions today. My assistant called them all last week to let them know the subpoenaes were coming and to consult with them regarding their schedules--basically trying to make it as easy as possible because nobody wants to be dragged into someone else's lawsuit.
So the last guy of the day shows up, along with a woman. The both seem to be quite dressed up for a deposition. She was in a very tiny dress with very tall heels. He was in his black Stetson and dress boots.
We were discussing whether the woman could sit in the deposition with him, and she said, "We're newlyweds!"
And I said, "Congratulations! How long have you been married?"
And she said, "Like, just now. We just left the court house and all of our family is waiting for us at home."
Holy crap. I totally subpoenaed and deposed some guy on his wedding day.
Of course, I never would have done that intentionally. We did talk to him before the subpoena went out and he never mentioned a wedding. He said he kind of forgot the wedding and the deposition were on the same day. Wow.
