"That's part of his boxing-in strategy, I think. As a juror, I think I'd be unimpressed by an examiner asking such an open non-question" For cross-examination

"That's part of his boxing-in strategy, I think. As a juror, I think I'd be unimpressed by an examiner asking such an open non-question" For cross-examination (IE in the presence of a jury), you might ask it differently. For deposition, you wouldn't. Deposition is entered into evidence, but when it comes to a jury hearing them, they are usually excerpts.
