Answer: Your boyfriend has received a subpoena, because he is a possible witness against the armed robber. The armed robber will receive a subpoena when it is your boyfriends turn to go to court. The subpoenas are automatically generated by the computer. The computer was programmed that way, because the prosecutor is required to give the defense notice of any witness that will testify at trial, or risk not being able to call that witness. So, your boyfriend's name appears just in case the prosecutor reaches a deal with him, and forgets to put his name on the witness list. If your boyfriend is charged with robbery, then he should assert his fifth amendment privilege, which will negate all this talk about him being called for trial. Even more interesting is why have you not asked your boyfriend's attorney. Does he have an attorney, or is he playing the ostrich game. The ostrich game: I make bond, consult with no attorney, stick my head in the sand, and hope that I never have to deal with the charges. If the prosecutor is pursuing the armed robber, they will be coming for your boyfriend next, and may even cut a deal with the armed robber to get your boyfriend. SO, I suggest get your head out the sand and get an attorney.
