Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
testimony and evidence admittance
How does a pro per plaintiff testify on direct exam and be able to admit documentary evidence? Does the defendant need to be sub pena'd to testify even if in court or be added on initial witness list? Can D refuse to testify ? Can an out of state non party witness testify via telephone conference call ? If so, how? Lastly, other than motion in limine (untimely) how does one exclude Defense exhibit that was stolen from Plaintiff's home?
(I understand very well that I should have counsel but that is not an option at this point.)
Thank you in advance for any responses and ideas.

Re: testimony and evidence admittance
Your issues are far too complicated to address in this forum. Why can't you retain an attorney? If you are a plaintiff, an attorney can take the case on a contingency basis. If you are a defendant, many attorneys will be willing to negotiate their rates and work out a payment plan.
Please feel free to call our office. We'd be happy to have an initial conversation with you at no charge.
