Ah, how timely! A friend from college who knows I follow the issue sent this a few days ago and asked the same question (Why are some people allowed to ignore subpoenas?
So, if it's a "black thing", as you say, is it also a "Sheriff Joe" thing?
Because Sheriff Joe blew off the subpoena as well. It is on record that he was subpoenaed, and it is on record that he did not attend. Put "orly taitz subpoena sheriff joe arpaio" (no quotes) in a search engine, and one of the links will take you to her page discussing her subpoenaing him. Not sure if it is allowed to link to her page due to viruses, so I won't.
Here's the letter indicating that Sheriff Joe wasn't going to go, from a county attorney to Orly Taitz.

Writing a letter to say you won't follow a subpoena isn't the way to get out of a properly issued subpoena, so there must be some other, less obvious part to all this.
