What can I do if the jail I was in was inhumane?

Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen

Unfortunately, nothing. Write your congressman or senator. We are overcrowded and under funded in Texas. We need a politician with motivation.

If you are subpoenaed and do not show up, the State will ask the judge for a continuance. If you have been personally served, they can have you picked up and even held in jail under a witness bond (or you may be able to make the bond - like a defendant) until it is time for your testimony. If they do not call you to testify at trial, then they MIGHT be able to make the case using hearsay statements from you. (Those are statements made to others outside of the court which are offered in court for the truth of the matter asserted.) However, this is generally not true. If you do not testify supporting the prosecution, or if you do not show up and they do not pick you up, and if they cannot make the case without you, then they may make an offer to the defendant in the hopes that he will accept it and plead guilty. Generally this is for a significantly lesser charge / punishment than first offered. If not, or if he will not agree to accept an offer, then they will probably have to dismiss the case. However, depending on why they dismiss it, they can refile it in the future if the statute of limitations has not run (which it does not run until you are 28.)
