I am the applicant and acting in person.
My ex has a barrister.
Can I ask to 'go second' when it comes to questioning my ex?
I would like to get the tone and strength of the questioning done on me so I know how to pitch my questioning.
Is this possible if I ask the judge/clerk of court?
Thanks

You can ask! It's down to the judge, etc. It'll do you no harm to ask. That said, the court will give each party time to return to questions off the back of what is said earlier on.

The only real rule is that experts tend to be cross examined first so they can be released.
