California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Maravilla, F075178 (Cal. App. 2019):
12. In dicta, at least one appellate court has noted that an officer's "conclusionary answer" regarding what Miranda rights were given to a suspect may be sufficient "if defense counsel makes no objection and does not seek to bring out the exact language used. [Citation.]" (People v. Barbosa (1967) 254 Cal.App.2d 581, 584, fn. 3.)
13. An objection based on hearsay was overruled.
