Rep. Cunningham Discloses Federal Subpoena

Mon Jun 20, 4:14 PM ET

WASHINGTON - Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham, R-Calif., told the House on Monday that he's been served with a document subpoena in Imperial County, Calif., and plans to comply with it.

His announcement was read on the House floor by a congressional clerk as the House convened for the week.

Cunningham spokesman Mark Olson said the subpoena, issued by Imperial County Superior Court, concerned constituent casework, but he declined to give further details. He said it was unrelated to a real estate transaction by Cunningham that federal authorities in California are investigating.

A federal grand jury has reportedly convened in California to look into the November 2003 sale of Cunningham's home to Mitchell Wade, president of the defense contracting firm MZM Inc.

Cunningham, a member of the defense appropriations subcommittee, sold the Del Mar, Calif., home to Wade for $1.7 million. Wade put the house back on the market shortly after buying it, and took a $700,000 loss on it a year after the initial sale.

About the same time, little-known MZM Inc., which is based in Washington D.C., began receiving large government contracts.

Under House rules, members must alert the House when they receive a subpoena.

Cunningham has denied wrongdoing. An MZM spokesman did not immediately return a call for comment Monday.
