In a mistrial is the same judge used?

No! Because in a mistrial, the defendant has been let go on extenuating evidence, and the trial will be heard at a later time with a new judge and new jury. If it even gets that far. In many mistrials the defendant goes free and the prosecution does have enough evidence to bring the defendant to another trial.---------------------ANOTHER VIEW: The above answer contains erroneous comments. The defendant in a mis-trial rarely goes free without being re-tried! If the case is assigned to that judge's docket he will retain control over it. There can be many reasons for a mistrial and most of them have nothing whatsoever to do with the judge or his actions. If neither the prosecution nor the defense files a motion for a new judge, or a change of venue, the odds are overhwelming that the same judge will re-hear the case.

You don't want to testify?

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.
