A unit of Jefferies Group Inc., the New York brokerage that specializes in mid-sized companies, received a subpoena from Irving Picard, the trustee seeking to liquidate Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC and pay investors in the alleged Ponzi scheme.

It's the first shown in court records as being issued in the case. Other investigations are being conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
