Representing Yourself in Court: How to Cross-Examine (Question) An Opposing Witness.
Important Points to Remember:
* Listen carefully to the witness’s testimony.
* Ask leading questions (ones that suggest the answer within the question and can be answered by simply saying yes or no).
* Use helpful facts to your advantage.
* If the witness has a reason to lie, question the witness about it.
* Impeach the witness if you can present evidence or get answers from the witness that show the witness is lying.
* Ask questions about the most important points if you believe the answers will help you.
* Do not ask too many questions! Stop when you’ve gotten the answers you need.
* Stay confident and keep a poker face.
It got me thinking though, how do you cross examine yourself in court? Do you wear a suit and a wig that are black down one side and white down the other and keep turning one way and the other. That's what I would probably do!
