§ 1084 Witness Fee Demand And Payment

• •Witnesses get paid a fee for going to court.
• •If they don’t pay you this fee when they ask you to come, you don’t have to go.
• •This rule is to make sure witnesses aren’t forced to come without getting paid first.

You get a letter saying you have to go to court to talk about a car crash you saw.

If they don’t pay you the money you’re supposed to get for being a witness right when they ask you to come, you don’t have to go.
