To Subpoena or Not to Subpoena
In physical PDF pages 13–16, the jury describes delays it attributes to Hollister’s blanket subpoena process for interviews and documents. Three findings and five recommendations seek direct scheduling and document-request policies, removal of the blanket requirement and training about subpoenas. The report requests a City Council response and invites the City Manager, Police Chief and Finance Director. The timing, subpoena history and legal interpretations are the jury’s account, not a court determination that particular officials violated the law. No verified final Hollister response is included in the provided package. Known blocked agency attachments remain a source gap, not proof of nonresponse or lateness.
