Rob Mudau, the senior commissioner adjudicating McBride's case, said that cross-examination of former Ekurhuleni city manager Patrick Flusk will continue this morning.
"The most part of the day will be spent on the cross-examination of Flusk.
"However, McBride can also decide later on who else he wants to call to testify on his behalf," said Mudau.
Flusk, who testified on behalf of McBride before the case was adjourned in September, had said that McBride was investigating corruption and "sensitive" cases when he was fired in September last year.
McBride's contract was due to expire this month.
Flusk has claimed that he and McBride were fired because there was political interference, after they investigated serious cases implicating councillors and managers in the metro.
He said he was fired after taking over the investigations from McBride, who was suspended in 2007 after being charged with drunken driving, defeating the ends of justice and fraud, after he crashed his car just outside Pretoria in 2006.
McBride is fighting to get his job back, claiming that there had been a verbal agreement to extend his contract.
Advocate Mornay Crouse, representing McBride, said another witness will testify on behalf of his client.
