—Order unanimously affirmed without costs. Memorandum: Because the subpoenas at issue are not part of the record, we cannot review the contentions of Renald E. Dembs (defendant) that Supreme Court erred in quashing the subpoena served upon David Peatfield and in failing to compel Steven Pierce to produce corporate records pursuant to a subpoena served upon him (see, Solomon v Solomon, 206 AD2d 971, 972; see also, People v Peak, 214 AD2d 1012, 1013, lv denied 86 NY2d 800). Moreover, the record establishes that defendant impermissibly issued the subpoena to Pierce during trial for the purpose of discovery, including whether certain documents exist (see, Matter of Terry D., 81 NY2d 1042, 1044; Matter of State of N. Y.— Off. of Mental Retardation & Dev. Disabilities v Mastracci, 77 AD2d 473, 475).
There is no merit to defendant’s contention that the testimony of plaintiff’s appraiser was “manifestly untrue, physically impossible, contrary to experience or self-contradictory”
