This video focuses on the skill of cross examination in a criminal trial and specifically, the importance of asking leading questions. The techniques demonstrated also apply to cross examination in civil trials. Please note that there are limited circumstances where non-leading questions will be applicable. We will explore the circumstances in a later video.

Isn’t a leading question used only in direct examination?

@advocacytutor6354 2 жыл бұрын

Leading questions should not be asked in direct examination, (except in limited circumstances). If you've been watching the Depp v Heard trial you will have seen Camille Vasquez's objections to the leading questions asked by Amber Heard's counsel.

Would you be so kind to clarify - if it is it important to ask leading questions why are they objected then?

@advocacytutor6354 2 жыл бұрын

Lawyers object to questions in cross examination not because they are formulated as leading questions, but for other reasons such as lack of relevance, lack of foundation, the questions are compound (more than one fact/question at once), or the witness has already answered the question.

@TheThelenita 2 жыл бұрын

@@advocacytutor6354 But what about when the lawyer says: "Objection:leading"? According to the webpage - dictionary law com such an objection means: "Leading is improper if the attorney is questioning a witness called by that attorney and presumably friendly to the attorney's side of the case."

@advocacytutor6354 2 жыл бұрын

@@TheThelenita Correct. In examination in chief (direct examination) leading questions are not permissible, except in limited circumstances. I have a video that explains this in detail: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hJlkd91-sr2tiok.html

Where is the logic here? Not all assault results in noticeable physical injury. Yes, the defendant might have acted disproportionately by stabbing in response to the physical assault...But how was he to know the attacker would not injure him severely?

@JDC2890 3 ай бұрын

A redirect examination may help here. The defendant's attorney would then need to ask him about stuff the prosecution said, and allow him to testify about stuff like why he believed he was being assaulted even though he sustained no injuries. Of course, a redirect examination would need to be followed up by another cross-examination.

The central content is good, but the presentation style is really wooden. It needs to speed up. It sounds like a child reading in class - it needs to sound more conversational. Drop the music - it doesn't add anything at all and distracts from the content, when the content is all talking. I get why you added the 'humour' at the end but in my view it doesn't work, not entirely appropriate and just slows down the video. Even when you're learning stand-up comedy they treat it seriously and don't add unnecessary humour. The animation is fine but doesn't add much, but script appearing on the screen would work just as well and would benefit some people more than the animation. The example is useful though.
