CLEVELAND — Ohio U.S. Sen. Bernie Moreno and his wife Bridget have been ordered to testify in the ongoing divorce proceedings between their daughter Emily and her husband, Northeast Ohio U.S. Rep. Max Miller.
3News obtained copies of the subpoenas against Bernie and Bridget Moreno that were served Monday by Miller’s attorney, Pamela J. McAdams of Morganstern, MacAdams & DeVito Co. in Cleveland. Both subpoenas were signed by State of Ohio Notary Public Elizabeth D. Shonk McManamon, and request the following from the couple:

- “A paper trail of any monies transferred from you entity or trust over which you have control or interest, of monies transferred to Emily Moreno Miller in the past three (3) years.”
According to the subpoenas, Sen. Moreno’s deposition would take place on May 9 at noon, with Bridget Moreno’s testimony following roughly two hours later. 3News has reached out to both Moreno and Miller’s offices for comment.
