Part 2: essay response

Part 2 is made up of a single essay style question worth up to 5 points. Part 2 is untimed but must be submitted before the deadline in order to be graded. Respond to the question below and upload your final document as a PDF.

To earn full points, you must present your answers in a clear and concise manner. Please write in complete sentences and use proper grammar and correct spelling.  Mistakes may be cause for point reduction. You must use and cite appropriate course readings (in APA style). Students are not allowed to use direct quotes and should use formal writing. Responses that include direct quotes will lose at least 50% of the points. Further, students should not use resources from outside the course or friends/classmates to answer the questions. You must include a references page (written in APA style) that includes all of the resources cited in your responses to the questions.  

Essay Prompt: Explain the Courts reasoning for excluding hearsay statements by default and tell me why hearsay exceptions exist. Next, choose one of the hearsay exceptions discussed in class and briefly explain the rational for this exception. Finally, describe the necessary requirements statements must meet to be considered eligible for the hearsay exception you chose.
