Can a convicted felon testify in court?

Answer 1

Anyone, including convicted felons, can be subpoenaed to testify in court and can actually testify in court. Convicted felons often testify in court. By cooperating, they may obtain better treatment or even a reduced sentence. The fact of their conviction, however, may reduce their credibility in the eyes of the Judge or jury.

Answer 2

Generally, a felon can act as a witness at a trial, although many will hold a felon's word to less than of someone with a clean record.

There are no laws that prohibit this, but attorneys will avoid it when possible.

Answer 3

yes
