Rebuttal Evidence -- Right to Rebut -- Reservation of Right -- Forfeiture
The right of rebuttal available to a plaintiff is confined to issues on which the onus of proof lies upon the defendant -- Such right must be specifically reserved either at the time of closing evidence in affirmative or at a stage prior to the defendant leading their evidence -- Where no such right is reserved, the same shall be deemed to have been forfeited--CPC, 1908, O.18, R.3. (Para 8)
