Cross-Examination Workshop
Readiness training. LEA.Training does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
Earlier units gave you the questions that test digital evidence. This unit puts them to a witness. You will work on one invented case from both sides: first as the lawyer who calls the digital expert, then as the lawyer who tests that expert, then the other way round.
Focus: cross-examination is a fair test of evidence. Its aim is to show the court what the evidence can and cannot prove. It is not a contest to embarrass a witness, and it is never a tool to mislead a court.
Learning objectives
- State the ground rules of fair questioning.
- Turn an expert report into a question plan.
- Write short questions that test scope, method, findings and alternatives.
- Prepare your own witness so that the limits of the evidence come out early.
- Recognise questions that are unfair or that damage your own case.
