Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Pennsylvania

Re: civil court statements

It probably will not hold up. The opposing party has the right to confront witnesses. How do they ask a piece of paper questions?

The alternative is to hold a deposition. A form of discovery where the witness is asked questions on the record by attorneys for both parties. The deposition can then be entered if both sides agree.

Another possibility is to ask the court to allow the witness to testify by telephone. This can be done by getting the other party to agree or have the court issue an order allowing for telephone testimony.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.

Re: civil court statements

You likely want to take his deposition and subpoena him to appear at court that way the company will be able to question him for the record.

Yes you likely need an attorney to help you get his statement in.

Good luck to you.
