None. You have the right to remain silent, stupid.
NO because she agreed to testify agenst"the family"
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.
life sentence
You can spend a day or a weekend or more depending on your record.
Yes, you can go to jail for battery, delinquency of a minor, and fighting in public. How much time you can spend in jail will depend on your local and state laws.
If you have an unpaid speeding ticket in Utah, there is a possibility that you could spend as much as 6 months in jail. This will depend on the circumstances.
That is a matter left strictly up to the sentencing judge. The maximum you could spend in jail would be for the remainder of your sentence.
I don't know in which facility the girl would be held. There is no bail for contempt. Contempt is the "willful" refusal to comply with a court's order. The only way to be released from jail is to comply with the court's order. In this case, the girl would remain in jail until she agrees to testify.
so you can spend your money and dont go to jail
Being stingy with money is usually a negative term meaning that someone is being very cheap with their money and refusing and unwilling to spend much money at all.
Depends on "your" involvement. Don't know the laws of CA. Here in sunny FL probably life.
quite some time...maybe 2 years...or less...depends on how good your lawyer is.
