Civil ?

Why are you saying 'accused' if the matter is a civil matter? Normally use witnesses for the plaintiff or witnesses for the defendant.

Attacking the credibility of witnesses is allowed but you'd likely need to convince the court of the relevance before getting a subpoena.

Apologies, should have been put in criminal law forum. This thread relates to a criminal matter.
