________ is when the officer may answer the question

• A. Sustained
• B. Redirect Examination
• C. Cross Examination
• D. Overrules

Answer: (D)

The key idea is how the court handles objections during testimony. When an objection is raised, the judge decides whether the question can be answered. If the objection is overruled, the witness may answer the question. If the objection is sustained, the witness must not answer that question. Redirect and cross-examination refer to different phases of testimony, not to the rule that allows answering a particular question. So, the condition that lets the officer answer is that the objection has been overruled.
