Cross-examination is a critical part of the judicial process in which a lawyer questions a witness who has already testified during a trial or deposition. This phase follows direct examination, where the witness is first questioned by the party that called them to testify. The primary purpose of cross-examination is to challenge the credibility of the witness, clarify their earlier statements, and explore the reliability of their testimony.
