§201. Self-incrimination; waiver
A defendant may not be compelled to testify in any action when the pleadings in that action imply or charge an offense against the criminal law, a traffic infraction or a violation of Title 22, section 2383 on the defendant's part. If the defendant offers to be a witness, the defendant waives the privilege of not incriminating or testifying against oneself, but the defendant's testimony may not be used in evidence against the defendant in any criminal prosecution, other traffic infraction proceeding or other civil violation proceeding arising under Title 22, section 2383 involving the same subject matter.
