{% embed url="<https://www.loom.com/share/a6d80539882a46699228c82ac84ad474?sid=e7a56cf1-a3dc-4954-9d5c-2346747ae1b0>" %}

This video provides a detailed walkthrough of the **Cross-Examination Strategy for Respondent** skill, an integral part of the **Litigation** module within the **Document Review** feature. It demonstrates how the platform generates a clear, structured document that automatically organizes all relevant cross-examination material. The skill identifies strategic lines of questioning designed to effectively test the Respondent’s version of events and legal defences.

In addition, the video highlights the platform’s interactive capabilities, allowing users to instantly navigate to source clauses with a single click of the **inline citations**. It also shows how the skill connects seamlessly with the **Ask a Research Question tool**, enabling users to extend their legal analysis without leaving the interface.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.jurisphere.ai/resources/skill-application-guide/disputes-litigation-and-arbitration/skill-litigation-cross-examination-strategy-for-the-respondent.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
