The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

1. ““ ‘4. Exemption from arrest and service of process. If a person comes into this state in obedience to a subpoena direct ing him to attend and testify in this state he shall not while in this state pursuant to such subpoena or order be subject to arrest or the service of process, civil or criminal, in connection with matters which arose before his entrance into this state under the subpoena. . . . ’ “Mr. Aloi was not brought to New York State pursuant to a subpoena of a court of New York State. He came to New York pursuant to Federal Grand Jury subpoena. Article 640 of the Criminal Procedure Law is the Uniform Act to Secure Attendance of Witnesses From Without the State In Criminal Cases. If the Federal government was a signatory to such act, the petitioner’s claim might be viable. However, the Federal government has not enacted such legislation or agreed to be bound by it. Nor has petitioner cited any federal case law which adopts a similar provision of law. Therefore, this court holds that Article 640 of the New York Criminal Proced-dure Law is inapplicable to the case at bar. “Based upon the foregoing, this court holds that the petitioner herein was properly served with the subpoena of the Nassau County Grand Jury, and was not exempt or immune from the service of the said subpoena.” 342 N.Y.S.2d 740, 742 .”
