CROSS EXAMINATION

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 06 March 2010 This query is : Resolved 
While being cross examined, the Respondent admits to a fact. Before signing the recorded cross examination, he is advised by his Counsel that a particular answer would prove damning for him

CAN THE RESPONDENT RETRACT HIS RECORDED ADMISSION DURING THIS CROSS EXAMINATION?

WHAT IS THE AUTHORITY FOR THIS ANSWER?

Please respond at "pushiharsh@rediffmail.com"

No he cannot retract. Whatever he has admitted in the cross examination is binding on him.
Even to correct it he cannot recall himself for the evidence again.
It is final and admission given by the wittness will bind on him.

I do agree with Rajeev Sir.
