Re: Do you have a right to cross examination of proofs
I'm not sure I entirely understand your question. It sounds like you are handling a Work Comp claim by yourself. It sounds like you are referring to a weather report that was introduced into evidence. You don't say if you won the case or lost it. Weather reports are to be certified to go into evidence on a jury trial without benefit of cross examination. On a Work Comp claim they would be taken whether certified or not if they show all of the relevant dates. If that weather report shows the weather on the two dates you mentioned, you can always point out the 19th when you feel there is something that helps you.
