A case worker, about to give testimony under oath should be required to give up their immunity to prosecution before being allowed to testify. (Immunity to prosecution means they can NOT be prosecuted for perjury when they lie)
The oath of truth is of no value, when they do not give up their immunity to prosecution.
You should instruct your attorney that you will accept nothing less. If you are representing yourself, you should stop the case worker before swearing to tell the truth, when testifying in court, tell the judge that you want the case worker to verbally give up any immunity to prosecution before swearing them in, for the record, because their immunity makes it impossible to to assure that they will tell the truth.
Also tell the judge that if they are not willing to do that, they should not be allowed to testify because of their immunity to prosecution. At least get it on RECORD, for your APPEAL! -Linda Downs
