BROWN, Circuit Judge.

GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) appeals a district court order quashing a subpoena commanding David Voyles, a Smithsonian employee, to testify at a deposition. GSK planned to ask him about his personal observations of a co-worker's behavior. Because GSK's request for information does not violate federal sovereign immunity, we reverse and remand to the district court for further proceedings.
