I understand this, but could I be cited for failure to produce evidence not known by the court to exist?
Absolutely. And it looks very, very bad for you if the court later discovers that you were holding back.
Is there a process that the court can use that says "hand over absolutely all artifacts pertinent to the case at hand known to *you*, whether such artifacts be known to the court or not." ?
Yes.
Or is it the case that failure on my part to offer up such evidence is inherently contemptuous?
You're not required to go *beyond* what is specified in a subpoena. But the subpoena's specifications can be pretty broad. --Mike
