| As stated earlier, Milwaukee was given more than ample time to collate and gather its evidence. It should have been prepared for the continuance of the trial. True, the incident on said date was for the cross-examination of Milwaukee's witness but it could be short; it could be lengthy. Milwaukee should have prepared for any eventuality. It is discretionary on the part of the court to allow a piece-meal presentation of evidence. If it decides not to allow it, it cannot be considered an abuse of discretion. "As defined, discretion is a faculty of a court or an official by which he may decide a question either way, and still be right."[27] | |||||
