Heading: hearsay evidence of bank balance

Text: (4) Petitioner complains that hearsay evidence of the periodic balances in his payroll account was introduced over [his] specific objections. At the hearing, Co-examiner Robbins testified that she had looked over petitioner's bank statements in Attorney Slates' office but had not been permitted to copy them; subsequent efforts to obtain the documents by formal discovery did not succeed. She was allowed to state from notes made during the office examination that the balance in the payroll account had fallen below $3,000 on several occasions between April 20 and August 21, 1981. Petitioner had voluntarily left the hearing well before Ms. Robbins took the stand; contrary to his assertion, the record discloses no timely objection to her testimony. Hence, the issue must be deemed waived. ( Yokozeki, supra, 11 Cal.3d 436, 447-448, and fn. 8.) [3]
