New World Marketing Corp. v. Garcia (In Re Garcia)
United States Bankruptcy Court, E.D. Pennsylvania
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
BRUCE FOX, Bankruptcy Judge:
The narrow issue in this adversary proceeding concerns the interrelationship of Fed.R.Civ.P. 45(d) and the Pennsylvania common law attorney’s “retaining lien.” Plaintiff New World Marketing. Corporation has subpoenaed debtor’s non-bankruptcy counsel to attend a deposition at which time original documents in the attorney’s possession are sought to be examined. The attorney, Clark Ladner, Fortenbaugh & Young (“Clark Ladner”), 1 has objected to the production of these documents by asserting a “charging lien.” 2 A brief recitation of relevant facts is necessary.
