DIRECT EXAMINATION - The initial questioning of a witness by the party that called the witness.

Direct examination consists of questions asked in a direct form, that is, a form which does not suggest the answer, such as "Where were you on July 18th?" Direct examination is conducted of witnesses who are friendly to the questioner.
