1 later decision quote this exact passage“[a] party may in the party’s notice and in a subpoena name as the deponent a public or private corporation ... and describe with reasonable particularity the matters on which examination is requested. In that event, the organization so named shall designate one or more officers, directors, or managing agents ... and may set forth ... the matters on which the person will testify.”
