Two contradicting statements in cross examination

Abha (Querist) 22 March 2016 This query is : Resolved
Hello All,

I was cross examined yesterday in my Divorce Case.

The cross examination happened in front of the appointed commissioner.

Somehow the other party lawyer was very shrewd and through some ill means he took two contradicting statements from me.

One statement was in favor of me and other statement on the same topic was not in favor of me. Please can you me how will the Judge decide the case in such scenario.

The statement which i told is correct, i am having proof also. But somehow the way he did cross, was somewhat confusing.

Kindly help. This is very disturbing me as i am struggling with case for over 5 years now.

Thanks,
Abha

Like for example the statements made by me were -
Statement 1 -
It is not true to suggest that i have transferred X amount for getting clothes for marriage purpose from X place.

Statement 2 -
It is not true to suggest that I never given any dowry x amount, to the respondent that amount was transferred to set marriage clothes as per custom.
