Holding
The court held that a bondholder and trust beneficiary, seeking to perpetuate testimony and inspect trust records under Code of Civil Procedure section 2084, had made a sufficient factual showing to justify the issuance of a subpoena duces tecum, and that the trustee’s constitutional protection against unreasonable searches and seizures did not shield it from producing documents material to a potential action for breach of fiduciary duty.
