True or false: Under Rule 602 of the Federal Rules of Evidence, a witness who personally heard another person make a statement may testify that the statement was made, even if the witness lacks personal knowledge of the events described in that statement.
False
True
True. Rule 602 requires that a witness have personal knowledge of the matter about which they testify. Hearing the statement firsthand gives the witness personal knowledge that the statement was made, so the testimony is admissible for that limited purpose. The witness, however, has no personal knowledge of the underlying events described in the statement and therefore cannot testify to the truth of those events; if offered for its truth, the statement would be hearsay unless an exception applies.
