Just to chime in, yes-it is a waste of time. Ask Capt White, we had this in a case about two months ago. We brought the witness in, swore her in, she said I plead the 5th, we said thank you, and moved on. Total waste of time, but the IOs dictate our work at the 32 level. Captain Christopher M.

She can't even be asked questions. Why waste your time and hers?

The IO has not deemed her unavailable. I have been informed the standard practice at Quantico, since she is not unavailable per RCM 405, is to have her appear and invoke on the record. > > Very Respectfully, > > Maryann N.
