Involved in "roommates" child support modification

Another way to say "Request for Production of Documents" is subpoena duces tecum.

You should not just round-can this, but it's also nothing to worry about.

WRONG. Those are different things.

Ok, I'll start with that and see what happens.... Depending on response/nonresponse, I'll have to decide what to do with the original request within 30 days (well, 29 now...)

The only reason to follow that advice is if you want to cause the other party to rack up additional legal fees.

Otherwise, you really can just ignore it. It is not necessary to respond because you are not a party to the case.

Thanks; I'm starting to get the sense that I can safely ignore it without any problems. Is there a downside (to me or my "roommate") by asking for the basis of the request?

That you have opened the door to have this lawyer communicate with you and you may end up during communication giving the lawyer information that he seeks that you are not required to give. Attorneys are good at exploiting little ins.
