Trial Time
So when trial begins, each party presents its outline of the case in an opening statement. Then, the parties present evidence. Each party may call witnesses or introduce documents and exhibits in support of its arguments. After each witness is called and questioned, the opposing party has an opportunity to cross-examine the witness. The plaintiff presents evidence first, then the defendant. Though the requirement is 50% or more evidence point to something (preponderance of evidence) and if one side have alot more then the other side the following result in a instant victory for side number one. Once all the evidence has been presented, the parties give their closing arguments. After closing arguments, the court instructs the jury on the law to be applied to the evidence. The jury then reaches a verdict (a decision on a disputed issue in a civil case). T
