Rowan and Luca are involved in a lawsuit after Luca allegedly assaults Rowan at a nightclub. Bobbi did not witness the assault but was in the nightclub, standing at the bar,
when the assault occurred. Immediately after the assault, Bobbi overheard a witness to the assault say, "Wow! Did you see that person in the blue shirt? They just punched
someone right in the face!" Bobbi saw Luca, and saw that Luca was wearing a blue shirt. At trial, Rowan's attorney calls Bobbi to the witness stand to testify. According to this
testimony, Bobbi did not see the assault, but heard a witness to the assault say a person in a blue shirt punched someone in the face, and saw Luca wearing a blue shirt. Luca's
attorney objects to this testimony. What will the judge likely rule on the objection?
The judge will deem Bobbi's testimony eyewitness testimony, because Bobbi was at the nightclub and saw Luca wearing a blue shirt, and therefore admissible
as evidence.
The judge will deem Bobbi's testimony hearsay and therefore inadmissible as evidence.
The judge will deem Bobbi's testimony eyewitness testimony, because Bobbi was at the nightclub and saw Luca wearing a blue shirt, and therefore
inadmissible as evidence due to recent scientific studies questioning the validity of eyewitness testimony.
