A federal judge has rejected an attempt by former St. Louis Cardinals scouting director Chris Correa to subpoena the Houston Astros in advance of his sentencing next month for hacking.
Correa lawyer David Adler filed a sealed motion April 27 in U.S. District Court in Houston, with attachments.
The next day, U.S. District Judge Lynn N. Hughes entered a one-line order that said, “Chris Correa may not subpoena the Astros for production of documents.”
Adler declined to comment Monday.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Chu, who is prosecuting the case, could not be reached for comment.
