After cross-examination, the party who originally called a witness examines that witness again. What is this examination called under BSA section 142?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 142(3) defines "Re-examination" by its sequence and the party conducting it. "Examination-in-chief" is conducted by the party calling the witness, "Cross-examination" by the adverse party, and judicial questioning is a different function; section 143 limits re-examination to explaining matters raised in cross-examination unless new matter is permitted.
