WASHINGTON — Lawyers for former President Donald Trump have accepted service of the subpoena issued by the House committee investigating the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, a person familiar with the service said.
The Trump representatives at the Dhillon Law Group have until Nov. 4 to respond to the subpoena’s demands for documents. Trump has also been called to testify under oath before the panel by Nov. 14 or soon after.
The subpoena, approved by the panel Oct. 13, portrays Trump as the key instigator in the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol. The legal process is unfolding just weeks before congressional elections in which many Republican candidates have embraced Trump’s false claims about the 2020 presidential contest.
