How Stressful

[joebloggs]

tell me about it, i had to give evidence last year, against my old boss in a crown court, as he was involved in major fraud. the worse part is waiting, the months and weeks of waiting until you have to give evidence, then sitting outside the court room minutes seem like hours , only for them to have a break, or its too late to hear your evidence and you have to come back tomorrow

but once your in the wittness box it's not too bad, as you don't have time to be nervous , wittnesses b4 me were in the wittness box for 10 or 15 mins, i was there for 1 1/2 hrs , 2 defense lawyers and 1 prosecution lawyer asking me questions, one of the defense lawyers trying to make out i was lying . was i happy to get out of there

not something i would want to do again and the case took more than 5yrs to go to court
