Do I have to be involved?

[Mistro]

michigan-i have been asked to make a statement saying that i didn't know that someone had me under surveilence. I don't want to press charges and i don't want to be involved and in a court case. Do I have to make a statement to the police and/or get involved? I just want to put this thing behind me. also-there are other people that they can get to give statements.

 

[I AM ALWAYS LIABLE]

My response:

Outside of a courtroom, you don't have to do anything you don't want to do.

Unless you are served with a Subpoena, and are then ordered to testify in court by a judge, you don't have to voluntarily cooperate with anyone, about anything.

But, be advised if you are called to testify, and you refuse to do so - even after a judge orders you to testify - then you will face "contempt of court" charges, and spend a little time in jail, yourself.
