State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is trying to force Pedro Espada’s taxpayer-financed Bronx clinic to say whether it paid for his failed legal defense.

Schneiderman yesterday filed papers in Manhattan state Supreme Court accusing the Soundview Health Care Network of ignoring an April subpoena.

The subpeona had asked Soundview to turn over by May 8 “all documents relating to the payment of legal fees” of any Soundview official or employee in connection with any case brought by the attorney general or the feds.

“Soundview has yet to produce a single document,” wrote Assistant Attorney General Rachel Doft.

Espada, who was CEO and president of the clinic, was convicted last month of stealing nearly $500,000 from Soundview by having it cover such personal expenses as lobster-and-champagne dinners.

The firm allegedly picked up the tab on an estimated $1 million to $1.5 million for his lawyers after their insurance company refused to foot the legal bills.

In an unrelated action yesterday, Brooklyn federal prosecutors asked a judge to bar Espada from any further involvement with Soundview.

Assistant US Attorney Todd Kaminsky wants the ban extended to include even “indirect participation through communications with family members” working at Soundview or on its board of directors.
