The Florida Supreme Court has recently accepted jurisdiction in Ulloa v. CMI, Inc. to resolve a conflict between the Fifth District Court of Appeal and Second District Court of Appeal in CMI, Inc. v. Landrum. In both cases, our appellate practice chair, Edward G. Guedes, represented CMI. The issue to be reviewed by the Florida Supreme Court relates to the ability of state courts to subpoena documents from an out-of-state corporate witness that happens to do business in the state, but otherwise has no documents, employees or offices in the state.
