BREAKING: Judge says former President Donald Trump and two of his children must testify in the New Y

36. I thought "A deposition is a witness's sworn out-of-court testimony" per Cornell Law

I don't have a law degree, I'm just trying to understand all this stuff. I understand it's different than in-court testimony & different rules of evidence apply, but thought a sworn deposition was still a form of testimony. I rely on Cornell a lot for things like this as they seem to be accurate but if I'm mistaken please let me know, I'm just trying to learn, thanks!!!

Cornell Law:

A deposition is a witness's sworn out-of-court testimony. It is used to gather information as part of the discovery process and, in limited circumstances, may be used at trial. The witness being deposed is called the "deponent."
