Curious question involving SC Family Court. If you receive a subpoena as a defense witness, are you permitted to sit in the court room and hear all the testimony etc... prior to you being actually called to the stand? Or are you barred from hearing any prior testimony?
Thanks
I was not permitted to sit in the court but I was called in to give my testimony.
Witnesses are barred from hearing prior testimony. It would only taint their own testimony. People have a tendency to just go along with whatever everyone else is saying. They should only be testifying as to what they personally know or don't know about things.
However, after a witness testifies, they are generally free to stay and watch the rest of the trial.Unfortunately it looks like your attempt to purchase VIP membership has failed due to your card being declined. Good news is that we have several other payment options that you could try.
