[CLC-Discussion] County Realtors Association - Witness SubpoenaPower

[Willis, David]

I am unaware of any statute providing the Realtors Association with any
right to issue a witness subpoena.
 
What triggered the hearing?  If the hearing qualifies as an arbitration
proceeding under Chapter 682, then the arbitrator has the power to issue
witness subpoenas pursuant to F.S. 682.08.  That is the only authority
that comes to mind.

SubpoenaPower



One of my clients received a subpoena to appear as a witness at a
hearing for the local county Realtors Association.  What authority does
the Realtors Association have to issue witness subpoenas and are they
enforceable.  Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I have not seen
this before and can find  no authority for this subpoena.
