A quick definition of Redirect examination:

Redirect examination: When a person is testifying in court, the other side can ask them questions to try and challenge what they said. This is called cross-examination. After that is done, the first side can ask more questions to help clarify anything that was challenged. This is called redirect examination.

A more thorough explanation:

Redirect examination

Redirect examination is a type of questioning that occurs during a trial. It is the second direct examination of a witness and takes place after cross-examination is complete. During redirect examination, the attorney who called the witness to the stand has the opportunity to ask additional questions to clarify or expand upon the witness's testimony.

During cross-examination, the defense attorney questioned the witness about their memory of the events leading up to the crime. After cross-examination was complete, the prosecutor conducted a redirect examination and asked the witness to describe the weather conditions on the day of the crime. This additional information helped to strengthen the prosecution's case.

In another example, a witness testified during direct examination that they saw the defendant at the scene of the crime. During cross-examination, the defense attorney questioned the witness's ability to identify the defendant. During redirect examination, the prosecutor asked the witness to describe the defendant's clothing, which helped to reinforce the witness's identification of the defendant.

Redirect examination is an important part of the trial process because it allows attorneys to clarify or expand upon a witness's testimony. By asking additional questions during redirect examination, attorneys can strengthen their case and address any issues that may have arisen during cross-examination.
