When will witnesses be allowed to testify in a civil case?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from The People v. Lucena, C059767, C064415, No. 04F10845 (Cal. App. 2010):
As we will explain, the court did not err in refusing to allow the witnesses to testify; this is so because "a release by a victim cannot waive the People's right to have a defendant pay restitution ordered as part of his sentence." (People v. Bernal (2002) 101 Cal.App.4th 155, 160.)
