Could they subpoena Mike Pence to testify whether he knew that Trump had taken classified documents out of the White House?
<p>In regards to the trial that will take place in the future regarding the issue of former U.S. President Donald Trump mishandling classified documents, I was just wondering if former Vice President Mike Pence could be subpoenaed to appear in court to testify whether he knew that Donald Trump had taken classified documents out of the White House.</p>

<p>Yes... whether the judge will grant the subpoena is another matter and one that it is to premature to speculate on.  With what I have seen of the indictment, Pence was not named as a witness in the investigation, which will call into question why he is being asked to testify to events that were not used to indict Trump (if he saw something, that should come out in the investigation prior to trial.).  Without some show that the testimony was material to the investigations findings and the charge I doubt it would be granted... but there's nothing stopping the prosecution for requesting the subpoena.</p>
