Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has issued a subpoena to Roblox Corporation as part of a statewide criminal investigation into the online platform’s child safety and reporting practices, directing the company to provide internal records to prosecutors by Dec. 20, 2025.

Issued under the authority of the Office of Statewide Prosecution, the subpoena directs Roblox to provide records and data related to user safety, moderation practices, and reporting of suspected child exploitation incidents. The company was ordered to furnish the materials by December 20, 2025, to the Tampa Bureau of the Attorney General’s Office, with compliance required within 60 business days.

“Platforms like Roblox have become breeding grounds for predators to gain access to our kids,” said Attorney General Uthmeier. “We will stop at nothing in the fight to protect Florida’s children, and companies that expose them to harm will be held accountable.”

The subpoena specifically orders Roblox to produce “records kept in the course of regularly conducted activity” relevant to potential violations of state criminal law. While the specific materials sought are listed in a sealed addendum, the document requires Roblox to turn over records related to user activity, moderation policies, safety protocols, and incident reporting procedures. It also seeks authentication through a notarized certification of business records, a step that allows the records to be admitted in court without additional testimony

The subpoena was served to Roblox’s corporate headquarters in San Mateo, California and to its registered agent, Corporation Service Company, in Tallahassee.

According to the Attorney General’s Office, the investigation stems from multiple reports that sexual predators have used Roblox to communicate with and groom minors, often exploiting the platform’s social features and in-game currency, “Robux,” to bribe or coerce children into sharing explicit content.

Allegations also suggest the company has failed to verify users’ ages adequately, moderate explicit material, or report instances of child victimization to law enforcement.
