The witnesses answer is NOT RESPONSIVE to the question.
The term for this legal objection is "non-responsive." It is used when the witness is giving an answer that does not address the question that was asked.
To swear in an expert witness, the witness is typically asked to take an oath or affirm to tell the truth before giving testimony in court. This is a formal process where the witness agrees to testify truthfully and can be held accountable for any false statements made during the proceedings.
A rhetorical remark is a figure of speech or a statement that is asked or stated for effect or emphasis, rather than to elicit an answer. It is often used to make a point or to draw attention to a particular idea or concept.
Evidence refers to any material or information that can be used to prove or disprove a fact in a legal case, such as documents, physical objects, or witness statements. Testimony specifically refers to oral statements given by witnesses under oath during a legal proceeding. Testimony is a type of evidence that is based on what witnesses personally observed or experienced.
Remus Lupin asked Harry Potter, "Harry, the time for pretending is over. Would you consider coming with us?" This is when he invited Harry to join him, Ron, and Hermione in their mission to defeat Voldemort.
She asked for permission to leave work early to attend a doctor's appointment.
The Judge has overruled the objection which means that he has found the objection to be without merit in law. The person on the witness stand must answer the attorney's question as asked.
"Sustained" is one of the two possible rulings on an objection raised by one of the attorneys. If an attorney asks an improper question, or a witness gives an inappropriate answer, the attorney for the opposite side (or, in the case of the inappropriate answer, the attorney asking the question) will object. The judge can then sustain the objection, saying "The question (or answer) is improper," or say the objection is "overruled"," meaning the question is proper and the witness may answer, or the witness' answer is accepted and the attorney should ask his next question.
As to form, think of it as "how" is the question asked. As to substance, think of it as "what" information is the question seeking. Some questions are asked in a manner that is not allowed in court, such as "leading questions." The question might be seeking legitimate testimony, but just not legitimately phrased under the rules of evidence. The objection will be as to the form of the question. Some questions seek testimony that does not have to be given, such as priveledged information. That kind of question might be legitimately phrased but seeking testimony that according to evidence rules the witness does not have to provide. That objection will be as to the substance of the question.

Sustain is a term that is subject to several definitions.In the context of trial practice, it refers to a judge agreeing that an attorney's objection is valid.(e.g.: If an attorney asks a witness a question, and the opposing lawyer objects, saying the question is legally "improper" or some other objection, if the judge sustains the objection, the question cannot be answered nor asked again.)In the context of appellate practice, an appelate court sustains a lower court judgment, if it leaves it intact, rather than overrules it.
