What is the test for an evidentiary challenge to a finding that hearsay evidence is hearsay?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Tulleys, D074713 (Cal. App. 2019):
9. In deciding whether the evidentiary challenges have merit, we are guided by the principle that "an appellate court applies the abuse of discretion standard of review to any ruling by a trial court on the admissibility of evidence, including one that turns on the hearsay nature of the evidence in question." (People v. Waidla (2000) 22 Cal.4th 690, 725.)
