Can grand jury testimony be used against you in civil court?

Grand jury testimony is generally protected by secrecy, meaning that it cannot be used directly in civil court. However, if a witness voluntarily discloses their grand jury testimony outside of the grand jury proceedings, that information may be admissible in civil court. Additionally, if the testimony relates to issues in a civil case, it could potentially influence the proceedings indirectly. Ultimately, the specifics can vary based on jurisdiction and the circumstances of the case.


What does it take for grand jury to convict some one for the death penalty?

The grand jury does not convict anyone of anything. The grand jury hears the evidence presented by the prosecutor.

It is that jury that determines if someone will get the death penalty.
