What do you think?
I guess the time it would be OK is if the witness was asking for clarification:
"What did you see that night?"
"You mean on the Saturday night?"

Are you talking about on the stand or in legal filings? On the stand, the lawyer can ask the judge to direct you to answer the question. In court filings, you can counter-question.

I don't think it ever is. When you answer someone's question with one of your own it's usually symbolizing that you are being slightly condescending. Unless that question I don't understand the question can you rephrase it ? then i wouldn't want to ask anything

To seek clarification or to address the judge.
