Unable to answer this question in this venue. There are entire textbooks devoted solely to this subject. But never forget Rule #1 - "NEVER ask a witness a question you don't already know the answer to!"

No because according to the 6th amandment:

"In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury shall be otherwise reexamined in any court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law."

Can the prosecution cross-examine defense witnesses?

Yes, absolutely.


What are the different motions and actions of the prosecution and defense?

The prosecution's role is to present evidence and arguments to prove the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. They may call witnesses, cross-examine the defense's witnesses, and make opening and closing statements. The defense's role is to challenge the prosecution's case, provide evidence and arguments to create doubt, cross-examine the prosecution's witnesses, and present a defense theory to establish reasonable doubt in the defendant's guilt.


Can a prosecution witness be re-called to testify after the defense?

The prosecution cannot call witnesses after it closes its case (prima-facie break), it can only cross-examine witnesses called by the defense. If the proseution attempts to call a witness not on its witness list before it closes its case, the defense should object. Basic court procedure means that the Prosecution must go first and show its case, then close its case, and then it is the defense's turn; the question as presented is a violation of the normal procedures used in court.


What are the responsibilities of a prosecution lawer?

Cooperate with the DA to decide whether the evidence is sufficient to present. Prepare the case for trial. Negotiate with defense counsel for ways to avoid trial (pleas of various sorts). Subpoena witnesses, and prepare them for examination. Should the case go to trial, cross-examine defense witnesses.
