Before suing the lawyer who served you the subpoena, make sure you contact a lawyer to review the document. The document you received may be something other than a subpoena (i.e., a summons). Generally, subpoenas are issued by courts in the area where you live. If the subpoena in question is not properly prepared, you should discuss your legal options with a qualified attorney. Good luck...

He can sue you. you could actual sue for something. He won't win. If for some reason, this occasion does see a court docket room, which I heavily doubt, you may desire to in trouble-free terms remember to make it usual which you rather had no unfavourable thoughts in direction of the cat, and the traps weren't meant for the cat in any way. Say which you're very sorry approximately what happened, yet you had the final to maintain undesirable rats away out of your private homestead and that's replaced into merely an unlucky twist of destiny that the cat fell sufferer to a catch. additionally, you may desire to make it sparkling which you ought to proceed utilising traps so sooner or later they might desire to maintain their pets on their very own property.

Report the event to the local bar association. The lawyer could lose his license.

If it's true he's been engaging in such practices, you can do better than that and have his License revoked. That's why Lawyers have to pass a Bar Exam so they can practice law in each state.

yep, you can. not only can u sue him, you can also have him debarred, if u can prove that he sent the subpoena with a malicious intent (i.e. not in 'good faith'). get hold of a lawyer and ask him about it, he'll guide you,

I am not sure if you can countersue, but what I would do is report him to the BAR association.

Yes, u can because that is just like perjury. Giving false documents is against the law.
