US Attorney seeks Reliant employees' testimony
Wednesday August 13, 2003SACRAMENTO (AP) Federal prosecutors have subpoenaed testimony from several employees of Reliant Resources Inc., the Houston-based energy company said Wednesday.
Reliant spokesman Richard Wheatley said the company included mention of the subpoenas in its quarterly report filed Wednesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The company received the subpoenas on July 24 from the U.S. attorney for Northern California and is cooperating with the request, Wheatley said.
The company said it has received subpoenas and informal requests for information from the U.S. attorneys for Northern California and the Southern District of New York.
The federal prosecutors were seeking documents, interviews and other information relating to round-trip trades and former trading activities, Wheatley said.
``We are cooperating with all inquiries and investigations at the state and federal level, including those initiated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the U.S. Attorney and other agencies,'' Wheatley said.
