Holdings:
The Virginia
Court made the following holding:
- When the declarant
appears for cross-examination at trial, the Confrontation Clause places no
constraints at all on the use of his or her prior statements. However, if
the declarant does not appear for trial and the statement is testimonial
in nature. The Sixth Amendment demands what the common law required: proof
of the unavailability of the declarant and a prior opportunity for
cross-examination.
- Decisions regarding the
admissibility of evidence generally lie within the trial court's sound
discretion and will not be disturbed on appeal absent an abuse of that
discretion. However, whether a particular category of proffered evidence
is "testimonial hearsay" is a question of law reviewed de novo
by an appellate court.
