The judge already has denied Bannon's request to have Members of Congress testify.noblepa wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 3:42 pm IANAL, but doesn't Bannon's attorney have to specify what line of questioning he wants a potential witness to testify to? Wouldn't this allow the judge to decide whether or not a specific congress person should be called?
Wouldn't it also allow a judge to stop a line of questioning at trial, if Bannon's attorney strays from the topics included in the subpoena?
But, if a Member of Congress did end up testifying, opposing counsel can always interpose objections, like relevance, and the judge would rule on the objection.
