N.Y. New York City Civil Court Act § 1201: Subpoenas

§ 1201. Subpoenas. A subpoena and a subpoena duces tecum, and the

powers of the court with reference to them, shall be governed by the

CPLR, except that they shall be served only within the city of New York

or in a county adjoining such city. But the court, upon motion of a

party which need not be on notice, may issue either kind of subpoena and

permit its service elsewhere outside the city of New York if satisfied

that the interests of justice would be served thereby.
