1.  Why am I a witness? I didn't see the crime occur.


2.  What if someone threatens me?


3.  What if the defense attorney contacts me?


4.  Do I have to testify in front of the defendant?


5.  Who will be with me in court?


6.  How long will I be at court?


7.  How many times will I have to appear in court?


8.  What if my employer won't let me come to court?


9.  I was subpoenaed by the defendant, not the prosecutor. Does this change anything?


10.  What if I need an interpreter?


11.  Can I get witness fees whether or not I attend on the date stated in the subpoena?  What if I can't attend on the date stated in the subpoena?


12.  Does the Prosecuting Attorney's office pay my witness fee?  Am I paid in cash?
