## LINQ statement

Source: `Data/SAIF.Data/Queries/Legal/LegalQueryProvider.cs:77`.

```csharp
public IEnumerable<Subpoena> GetSubpoenas(long caseId)
{
    return Factory.GetRepository<Subpoena>().Query().Where(x => x.LegalCase.Id == caseId);
}
```

## Sample SQL

> **Inferred SQL:** This SQL was inferred from the LINQ statement above and the NHibernate mappings. It is not concrete SQL from source code; NHibernate generates the executed statement at runtime, so aliases, column order, join syntax, and bind-parameter names may differ.

```sql
-- Inferred from LINQ (NHibernate mapping translation); not concrete SQL
SELECT
  SP.SUBPOENA_SEQ_NUM,
  SP.UPDATE_NUM,
  SP.SUBPOENA_TEXT,
  SP.SUBPOENA_OPENING_TEXT,
  SP.SHOW_APPEARANCE_FLAG,
  SP.ISSUE_DATE,
  SP.REQUESTED_BY_EMPLID,
  SP.APPROVED_DATE,
  SP.APPROVED_BY_EMPLID,
  SP.APPEARANCE_DATE_TIME,
  SP.COMPLIANCE_DATE,
  SP.BODY_PART_DESC,
  SP.RECORDS_REQUEST_FROM_DATE,
  SP.RECORDS_REQUEST_THRU_DATE,
  SP.PAGE_COUNT,
  SP.SAIF_LOCATION_FLAG,
  SP.ADDITIONAL_CLAIM_NUMBERS,
  SP.ADDITIONAL_CASE_NUMBERS,
  SP.AKA_NAME,
  SP.SERVE_BY_DATE,
  SP.SPECIFIC_LOCATION_TEXT,
  SP.SPECIAL_DELIVERY_TEXT,
  SP.FILE_NUMBER,
  SP.CREATE_USER,
  SP.CREATE_DATE,
  SP.UPDATE_USER,
  SP.UPDATE_DATE,
  SP.LEGAL_CASE_SEQ_NUM,
  SP.SUBPOENA_STATUS_CODE,
  SP.SUBPOENA_TYPE_CODE,
  SP.HEARING_LOCATION_SEQ_NUM,
  SP.SPECIAL_HANDLING_CODE,
  SP.PROCESS_SERVER_LOC_SEQ_NUM
FROM SUBPOENA SP
WHERE SP.LEGAL_CASE_SEQ_NUM = :caseId
```

Translation notes:
- The query is deferred; it runs when the caller enumerates it.
- `x.LegalCase.Id` → `SP.LEGAL_CASE_SEQ_NUM`. No join.
