Then ask the court top close the examination of the particular witness.
We are n God to know the intention of the defendant.
Once the evidence is closed then bring another witness if you so wish.

what is the suit for?
All that defendant has to do is show that claim of the plaintiff is not proved......cross examination of plaintiff witness would suffice for the defendant to demolish the case of the plaintiff. Burden of proof is on plaintiff. Just make sure you have all the documents...question of law...all the best!

If Plaintiff submitted affidavit of examination in chief.., the step is exhibiting pt Document, then Cross of Pt, then any more witness on pt part, then closure of evidence from your side, iecPlaintiff. Till that time, you can produce sufficient Evi/ doc.
Only on pursis of close evidence, that Defendant will be examined.
As claim sublet,the burden to prove sublet on u.

If ur evidence is insufficient, u try to improve upon. Court will allow u to produce further evidence on Application with justification to produce now, at later stage. Do it before argument stage.
