Casey Anthony Trial - After State Rests: Cross-Exam, Rebuttal/Surrebuttal

Excerpt:

You may think that once the state rests its case, it's done all it can. But that's not true at all. Remember, the state will be cross-examining all of the defense's witnesses and may be able to elicit things they never could have by calling a witness for direct exam.

Also, once the defense finishes, the state will be allowed a rebuttal case wherein they can put on their own witnesses to rebut the defense's case in chief. By the same token, the defense will be allowed surrebuttal, or rebuttal of the state's rebuttal. Got that? ;-)
