Honestly not sure when. It’s kinda an infamous one, it essentially says you can never introduce hearsay as evidence in a federal court because hearsay is unreliable… unless you fall into one of the 23 exceptions. Or you meet one of the two exceptions in FRE 807.
Tbf a lot make good sense and are just about government written records and making sure you don’t need to find some government official who retired 10 years ago.
803 the exception to the rule barring hearsay which swallows the rule nearly whole.
How did you come to learn this. What is an example of that playing out?
