How to Find the Legal Address for a Subpoena in Laird Connectivity?

Question from Anon, How to Find the Legal Address for a Subpoena in Laird Connectivity?

Answer from AI:

Who Holds the Records?

Both LS Research (LSR) and Laird Connectivity were acquired by Ezurio, LLC, which is itself a subsidiary of Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
Because the devices were produced after the acquisition, the records that would identify the original purchaser are most likely maintained by Ezurio, LLC (or its parent, Murata). In practice, subpoenas are served on the legal entity that actually controls the records, which in this case is Ezurio.

Finding the Proper Legal Service Address

The safest way to serve a subpoena is to use the registered agent address that appears on the state’s official filing for the LLC. This address is the one the state requires for service of process.

*The address above is the registered‑agent address listed in the Delaware Division of Corporations’ online database. It is the official location for service of legal documents unless the company has filed a different “designated office” for service.

How to Verify the Address

1. Delaware Division of Corporations – Entity Search

   • Go to the Delaware “Search for a Business Entity” page.
   • Enter “Ezurio, LLC” (or “Laird Connectivity, Inc.”).
   • Review the “General Information” section for the Registered Agent and Registered Office.

2. Check Recent Filings

   • Look for any “Certificate of Change of Registered Agent/Office” filed after the acquisition (2022‑2023).
   • If a newer address appears, that supersedes the one listed above.

3. Contact the Company Directly

   • Many corporations list a “Legal Department” or “Compliance” contact on their corporate website.
   • For Ezurio, the corporate site (https://www.ezurio.com) typically provides a “Contact Us” page with a mailing address and email for legal inquiries.

Practical Steps for Serving the Subpoena

1. Prepare the Subpoena

   • Ensure it complies with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (or the applicable state rules) and includes a clear description of the records sought (e.g., “purchase order, sales invoice, or shipping manifest for device serial # XXXXX”).

2. Serve on the Registered Agent

   • Deliver the subpoena to The Corporation Trust Company, 1209 Orange St., Wilmington, DE 19801, either by certified mail with return receipt, a professional process server, or any method permitted by the jurisdiction’s rules.

3. File Proof of Service

   • After service, file the proof of service with the court so the subpoena is deemed effective.

4. Follow Up

   • If you receive a response indicating a different corporate address (e.g., a “designated office” in another state), you may need to serve there as well.
   • If the company objects to the subpoena, be prepared to file a motion to compel, citing the proper service on the registered agent.

When to Seek Legal Counsel

• Complex Ownership Chains – If you discover that the device was sold by a third‑party distributor rather than directly by Ezurio, additional parties may need to be served.
• International Elements – Murata is a Japanese parent; if records are held overseas, different rules (e.g., the Hague Evidence Convention) may apply.
• Protective Orders – If the purchaser’s identity is sensitive, the court may issue a protective order limiting disclosure.

Because the exact corporate structure can change and because service‑of‑process rules vary by jurisdiction, consult a licensed attorney in the relevant state (or federal court) to confirm the address and to draft the subpoena in compliance with local rules. This ensures the subpoena is enforceable and reduces the risk of delays in your litigation.
