    The Fifth amendment to the United States Constitution provides that Chris has the right to be free from self-incrimination. This means that she has an absolute privilege not to testify against herself in a criminal proceeding. She cannot be compelled to testify by subpoena and may only testify in a criminal trial if she chooses to voluntarily do so.
