Court: AG must go to court to probe nat'l banks
Lawyer Blogs
The Supreme Court says state attorneys general can't issue their own subpoenas in investigations against national banks. However, the high court in a decision on Monday said that an attorney general can get a court to issue subpoenas in an investigation into those financial institutions.
The state of New York wanted the Supreme Court to overturn a federal appeals court decision that blocks states from investigating the lending practices of national banks with branches within its borders. It was supported by the other 49 states.
