Answer: Subpoena duces tecum.

Explanation:

Subpoena duces tecum is a court order served to the recipient to appear in court with certain documents or evidence that is instrumental in prosecuting a case.

If a subpoena duces tecum is ignored, the court will hold the recipient in contempt and it is punishable either by jail, fine or both.
