Statements Not Offered for the Truth of the Matter Asserted
None
Definition
Statements Not Offered for the Truth of the Matter Asserted are out-of-court statements that are admitted into evidence for a purpose other than proving the truth of the content of the statement itself. These statements are not considered hearsay because they are not relied upon for their truthfulness, but rather for another legally relevant purpose.
