Witness Fees: Effect of Failure to Tender

Witness Fees: Effect of Failure to Tender. The failure to tender the sums specified in the rules on judicial fees adopted by the Commonwealth judiciary for mileage or subsistence, or any part of either or both, does not exempt the witness from complying with the summons if the witness has the means to comply. Any question as to the sufficiency of the amount tendered shall be brought promptly to the attention of the court or official before whom appearance is required, and the court or official may make such order as to payment of the witness fees as is just.
