    Hi,

    Does anyone know what the story with getting off work to serve as a witness in court is? Does it come out of my annual leave, even though I am legally obliged to attend?

    Thanks.

    I don't think a summons to court is considered as holiday leave, I think your company is obliged to give you the day off and not have it effect your anual leave.

    Companies had to leave off FCA/RDF members for their anual camp, for 2 weeks and not effect their anual leave. So I was told ;)

    I think thats only for Jury duty. The employer has to let you attend as a witness but I think it goes either unpaid of annual leave.

    the only court leave not to affect your holidays is jury duty.
