How is a witness called to a trial?
Witnesses are brought to trial in two main ways: 1. They are asked, and voluntarily appear. This is risky, as they may not, in fact, appear. Without them, the party who needs them may be unable to prove their claim or defense. 2. By serving them with a subpoena. A subpoena is essentially a court order commanding the witness to appear at a specified time and place to offer testimony. If it is necessary for the witness to bring documents or other material, a "subpoena duces tecum" is served. This is essentially the same as a plain subpoena, but is titled differently and specifies the material that is to be brought at the time of testimony. If the witness does not appear despite being served with a subpoena, he/she may be held in contempt (for disobeying a court order). It generally also lays a better predicate for getting the hearing or trial continued (delayed), because the court will see that the party did all that he/she could do get the witness to the hearing/trial. The subpoena must be accompanied by a statutory mileage fee, the amount of which can usually be determined from the Clerk of the Court. If the witness is an "expert witness", (for example, a physician or someone else with technical, specialized knowledge that is necessary for the required proof), he/she may request a reasonable expert witness fee to attend. If not paid, he/she may have a basis for not complying with the subpoena. If the party subpoenaing such party feels that the fee requested is out of line, a hearing may be set with the court to determine reasonableness.
