A criminal case can be subpoenaed after it is accepted. A subpoena is a measure used by judicial organs to notify litigants to appear at a designated time and place. Criminal suspects who do not need to be arrested or detained may be summoned to a designated location or place of residence in the city or county where the criminal suspect is located for interrogation. Legal purpose:
Article 119 of the Civil Procedure Law: Criminal suspects who do not need to be arrested or detained may be summoned to a designated place in the city or county where the criminal suspect is located or to his or her residence. For interrogation, certification documents from the People's Procuratorate or the public security organ must be produced. Criminal suspects found at the scene may be summoned orally upon presentation of their work IDs, but this shall be noted in the interrogation transcript. The time for summons or custodial summons shall not exceed twelve hours; if the case is particularly serious and complex and requires detention or arrest measures, the time for summons or custodial summons shall not exceed 24 hours. Criminal suspects shall not be detained in disguised form in the form of continuous summons or subpoena. When summoning or arresting criminal suspects, their diet and necessary rest time should be ensured.
