On cross examination, don’t let the defense lawyer upset you. It may seem at times that
he is trying to pin you down, but the defense lawyer has the right to test how
many of the facts you know and remember. Don't argue with the defense lawyer, just remember to relax and tell the truth.
-
Answer all questions to the point. If you
can answer a question with a simple yes or no, do so. Answer only the questions asked. Do not volunteer additional information.
-
If you don't understand or didn't hear thequestion, ask that it be explained or
repeated.
-
If either lawyer raises an objection, stop
speaking at once. After the Judge has ruled, you may be asked to continue.
