Holly, with respect, that is your OPINION. How do you know those subpoenas lead to nothing "material" until the questions are asked? The prosecutor knows where the investigation is going and would seem better able to make that call. If you disagree, you move to quash the subpoena. That is how it works. Further, as I understand it material gathered in the discovery phase of any proceeding (criminal or civil) does not need to result in any admissible evidence. As I said, turning over rocks and exposing the underside to the light tends to have interesting effects. You have not yet specified how these shotgun subpoenas have violated anyone's constitutional rights. Plain FACT is you can't because they don't. This is the investigative/prosecutorial norm. Some may be more thorough and aggressive than others. That's not unconstitutional. JLA
