Section 215: Order and direction of examination.

1 Witnesses shall be first examined-in-chief, then, if any other party so desires, cross-examined, then if the party called him so desires, re-examined.

2 The examination and cross-examination must relate to relevant facts, but the cross-examination need not be confined to the facts to which the witness testified on his examination-in-chief.

3 The re-examination shall be directed to the explanation of matters referred in cross-examination and if a new matter is, by permission of the court, introduced in re-examination, the adverse party may further cross-examine upon that matter.
