07:46 AAPL Apple: Bloomberg story discusses Jobs subpoena - Bloomberg (140.77 )

Bloomberg reports the co's CEO, Steve Jobs, was subpoenaed by the SEC to give a deposition in a backdating lawsuit against the co's former general counsel, two people familiar with the matter said. The subpoena isn't part of an SEC investigation, one of the people said. It seeks Jobs's testimony in the SEC's lawsuit against Nancy Heinen, who was sued April 24 for allegedly backdating stock-option grants to Jobs and members of his executive team, said the people, who requested anonymity because deposition subpoenas aren't made public. (Briefing.com note: There were rumors related to this in the mkt yesterday.)
