Legal Question in Business Law in Pennsylvania

subpoena

I received a subpoena as a witness for my ex-employer. The trial should be 3-4 days. Who pays for my days off from work?

My employer of a few months says not him. He isn't too thrilled that my ex-employer is suing my new employers current customer.

I have a family of 5 and can't afford not to have a paycheck at all.

Re: subpoena

Call the attorney who subpoenaed you and ask him or her about reimbursement for lost wages and travel expenses. Also ask when exactly you are needed. You may well have to show up in court only for a day or a half-day, not the entire trial.
