Shkreli asks court to quash subpoena


NEW YORK: Martin Shkreli, the former biotechnology executive facing accusations of securities fraud, wants a federal judge to step in and help him avoid being charged with contempt if he doesn’t appear at a congressional hearing this week.

Shkreli’s lawyers are seeking “guidance” from US District Judge Kiyo Matsumoto in Brooklyn regarding a subpoena he received to testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee at a hearing on drug pricing on Jan 26.
