The potential witness is served a subpoena and is legally obligated to appear at the time stated or be charged with contempt of court. In which case a warrant will be issued for the person's arrest and after the person is taken into custody he or she will still be brought into court to testify. The prosecutor can request the court to deem the person a hostile witness and the judge can order the individual to answer questions put to them or face further contempt and obstruction charges.
