Does testifying as a witness give any kind of non-criminal record?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
I'm not sure what you mean by "non criminal record." Do you mean, will there be a way to trace that you once testified in a trial? Since most trials are public (with few exceptions involving minor children) your name would appear in the transcripts of the proceedings and I suppose anyone who wanted to order a transcript of the trail could do so and see your name. However, there is not some type of database for people who testify in court like there is for criminal records. Hope this answered your question.

What could my husband be facing?

He could be sentenced to state prison, although I would expect to work out a county jail sentence. He may be in for a number of months.

Can the accuser be prosecuted for lying in a police report/complaint in California?

Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
Only if the police can prove he made a false report within the definition of the criminal code, and they decide to prosecute.
