Law/Patents
English term or phrase: re-direct
It's a deposition and it says:
Index
Witness re-direct re-cross direct cross.
DEspués aparece el nombre del testigo. El direct supongo que es el interrogatorio y el cross las repreguntas pero el "re-direct y el re-cross" no tengo idea...

Spanish translation:Contra-interrogatorio [re-preguntas]
Explanation:
Es el turno de la parte contraria para cuestionar al testigo, que ya antes habia declarado ante dicha parte, pero la ley le permite el contra-interrogatorio.
'Re-direct' y 'Re-cross examination' tienen un carácter casi semejante, sólo que 'cross' se aplica a una tanda de preguntas 'cruzadas', relativas a testimonios ya declarados, a ver si el testigo se contradice, o varia su declaración [statement] original, y así la parte interrogante gana terreno..
Luck!

...nuevo interrogatorio...


Explanation:
That's "re'direct". "Re-cross" would be "nuevo contrainterrogatorio"...
The first one is usually carried out by the counselor for the defense. The other one obviously by the prosecutor...

Explanation:
By adding "directo", you would still make a difference with re-cross.
