If the courtsubpoenaed them, then yes they do. They must have information that is strong enough to bring a minor into a court room to testify. Sometimes depending on the case, instead of the minor going on the stand in front of everyone the DA, the prosecutor and the judge will go into a different room with the child and ask them questions so the child does not feel uncomfortable.
