You get a call from the general counsel at a bank that has just received a grand jury subpoena. She's not worried, however, because the subpoena appears focused solely on a customer, Mr. Jones. He is not an employee or agent of the bank, just an unaffiliated investment manager who has been a customer for the past 5 years.
