Can Hearsay ever be admissible evidence in court involving Grand theft auto?

Hearsay literally means information gathered by the first person from a second person concerning some event, condition, or thing of which the first person had no direct experience. When submitted as evidence, such statements are called hearsay evidence. As a legal term, "hearsay" can also have the narrower meaning of the use of such information as evidence to prove the truth of what is asserted. Such use of "hearsay evidence" in court is generally not allowed. This prohibition is called the hearsay rule.

For example, a witness says "Susan told me she was cold". Since the witness did not experience Susan's coldness firsthand, the statement would be hearsay evidence to the fact that Susan was cold, and not admissible. However, it would be admissible as evidence that Susan claimed to be cold, and that she was capable of speaking at that time.

It's only admissable if you plead guilty and waive all of your rights. Otherwise, it would not be admissable in a trial under the Rules Of Evidence.

I am not a lawyer but I do not think hearsay holds up as evidence.

There are exceptions to the hearsay rule that allows it to get in as evidence. You'd have to be more specific with your question.

Hearsay is not allowed under the Federal Rules of Evidence. There are, however, 24 exceptions to the rule... keep in mind that they are VERY specific and, in general, hearsay is not admissable in court.

Hearsay is not considered as evidence. It has, however been used as enough proof to get a warrant for either search or arrest.
