No bearing whatsoever. He can question and cross-examine witnesses without taking the stand and testifying under oath in his own trial.

You don't want to testify?
I don't believe you have much choice. If you are not the defendant, married to the defendant, or legally insane and a danger to your self and others, you have to testify. If you refuse, you can be held in 'Contempt of Court', and will go to jail.
