Summary
Grand juries. Provides that a judge shall permit an individual who wishes to testify before a regular grand jury or a special grand jury to do so unless the judge makes a written finding that the testimony of that individual would present a substantial physical danger to the grand jurors or would likely invalidate any true bills issued by the grand jury. The judge's written finding may be appealed to the Court of Appeals. View Full Text »
