Continuing Objection: An objection to certain questions or testimony during a trial which has been overruled by the judge, but the attorney who made the objection announces that he or she is continuing the objection to all other questions on the same topic or with the same legal impropriety in the opinion of the attorney. Thus there is no need for an objection every time the same question or same subject is introduced.
