failure to testify

Read a random definition: confinee

A quick definition of failure to testify:

Failure to Testify: When someone is expected to give evidence in a court case or investigation, but they choose not to speak or answer questions, it is called a failure to testify. This can have consequences, such as being held in contempt of court or facing legal penalties.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Failure to testify refers to the act of not giving testimony in a legal proceeding when one is required to do so.

For example, if a witness is subpoenaed to testify in court but fails to show up or refuses to answer questions, they can be held in contempt of court for failure to testify.

This failure can have serious consequences, including fines or even imprisonment. It is important to understand that when someone is called to testify, they have a legal obligation to do so, and failing to comply can result in legal repercussions.
