Redirect Examination With Grice

-- by J. L. Speranza
---- for the Grice Club

Grice lived in California, so, like J, he should have been familiar with stuff. As Kramer notes, one thing is cross-examination (and cfr. direct examination). Another is "redirect examination" -- cfr. Grice on the electron, the atom, and the quark.

Here is the wiki for "redirect"

"Redirect examination is the trial process by which

the party who offered the witness has a chance

to explain or otherwise qualify any damaging or accusing

testimony brought out by the opponent during cross-examination. Redirect

examination may question only those areas brought out

on cross-examination and may not stray beyond that boundary.

In Australia and Canada the process is called re-examination."

--- and in Oxford they don´t have it? Ah well.

"See also: Cross examination, Direct examination"
