DH has received a court summons as a witness for the prosecution. We live in Cornwall. The court summons is to attend in Scotland. The trial begins over the Easter holidays which DH booked as annual leave to take with the kids, as I have recently started in my job and without going into too much detail, I need to source all my own business myself. I have only now started to build up clients to be able to start turning over and bringing money home - there is no way I can take 2 weeks off in April. Does anyone know if he can give evidence by court summons remotely? The trial is expected to last up to two weeks, and it wouldn't be so bad if he could come home in between.
I have a 20 month old, and an 8 year old - working from home would be really tricky with 20 month old, plus as I'm so new to my job sector I really need the support of my colleagues within the office (I'm super new!).
