HEARSAY ADMISSIBLE AT CALIFORNIA PROBATION REVOCATION PROCEEDINGS
People v. Abrams, No. B194835
The Defendant's prison sentence imposed following probation revocation proceedings on a charge of petty theft with prior convictions is affirmed. The issue in this case was whether or not information that the defendant has reported to his probation officer or made monetary payments to the officer are essentially non-testimonial. The court held that even if the statements are hearsay, they are admissible at a probation violation hearing.
