Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has been subpoenaed in a criminal case out of California, a U.S. House officer announced on Wednesday.
In the House chamber, Reading Clerk Tylease Alli read a message to the speaker from Pelosi in compliance with the House rules, which dictate how members should deal with judicial subpoenas and orders that are “properly” served.
“This is to notify you formally pursuant to Rule 8 of the Rules of the House of Representatives, that I, the honorable Nancy Pelosi, speaker emerita, and U.S. representative for the 11th Congressional District of California, have been served with third-party subpoenas from the prosecution and defendant to produce documents in a criminal case in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California,” Alli recited.
