The Hearsay Rule and Its Exceptions

Donnelly, Richard
Abstract
Article VIII of the Uniform Rules of Evidence deals with hearsay. Rule 63 states a general policy of exclusion which is then qualified by thirty-one subsections containing exceptions. This rule follows Wigmore in defining hearsay as a "statement which is made other than by a witness while testifying at the hearing offered to prove the truth of the matter stated."
