The court says what? Read the decision. The court properly points out that while the witnessthis was a witness. mind youwa3 not in and of himself subjecting himself to deportation. and while deportation is not a criminal proceeding. therefore the lower court says he should have answered this question. But the higher court says "No." because there are these various statutes which I have just recited and read from the courts decision that this witness might have violated .andwould have incriminated himself by answering in the affirmative. so. therefore. he would have subjected himself to possible incrimination. Now. the question resolves itself down to this: Who is to judge whether or not a witness may properly raise the issue of selfincrimination?
