Can my witness testify at the hearing over the telephone?
Answer:
Most presiding officers will allow a witness to testify over the telephone at the
hearing even if the hearing is held in-person. You need to inform the presiding officer
before the hearing that you will have a witness by telephone, so that the hearing officer can
arrange for a speaker phone. A speaker phone will allow everyone in the room at the hearing
to listen while the witness speaks.
