Under the law, the opposing counsel has the right to take your statement under oath. The opposing attorney will ask you questions and your answers will be taken down by a court reporter. Your lawyer will be present during your deposition.

A deposition or an E.B.T. (Examination Before Trial) involves your spouses attorney questioning you under oath before a court officer about financial aspects of your marriage. The questions are limited to financial aspects of the marriage and cannot concern custody issues or issues concerning grounds for divorce. The deposition usually takes place in one of the attorneys offices, but can take place at the court house.

A deposition is a formal meeting, with a court reporter, where the defense and/or prosecution may question witnesses who are under oath. This is a very expensive and time- consuming procedure and not often employed in traffic ticket cases.
