Hearsay is something a person says out of court that one of the parties wants to admit for the truth of what the person says. For example, if Eduardo says, “Miguel ran a red light,” to a friend four weeks after the accident, it might be hearsay if a party tries to admit Eduardo’s statement to prove that Miguel ran the red light. Not all comments outside of a courtroom are hearsay. In fact, there are many exceptions to hearsay rules that apply in Florida car accident cases like present sense impression and excited utterance. Your attorney can help you take full advantage of the Florida Rules of Evidence.
