I was served a witness subpoena for an upcoming court case and am curious about a few things. The accused is up on charges of theft - so I imagine this won't be a marathon of a case. That said, I'd like to get an idea of how long I might be required to stay in court that day. I'm required to be there mid-afternoon - so would it be safe to assume I'll be out of there within a few hours? Or could it go well into the evening?

Also, is this something I need to dress up for? Shirt and tie sort of thing?

My court experience is limited to what I see on TV, so I have no idea what to expect...
