When you testify on your own defense. You have the right not to testify under the 5th amendment.

The Fifth Amendment protects witnesses from being forced to incriminate themselves. To "plead the Fifth" or to "take the fifth" is a refusal to answer a question because the response could form self incriminating evidence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution
