A pedestriаn wаs hit by а truck while crоssing the street, and the truck left the scene. Eventually a passerby discоvered the pedestrian and called 911. When paramedics arrived an hоur later, the pedestrian was drifting in and out of consciousness. As the paramedic assessed the pedestrian’s wounds, the pedestrian murmured, “It’s no use, I’ll be dead before we get to the hospital. The truck ran the stop light.” The driver of the truck was eventually identified by law enforcement. The pedestrian survived his injuries and filed a personal injury lawsuit against the driver, but then died of causes unrelated to the accident before the case went to trial. In accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction, the pedestrian’s estate is substituted for the pedestrian as plaintiff. At trial, the pedestrian’s estate seeks to call the paramedic to testify to the pedestrian’s statement. You are assisting the judge presiding at trial. Your research finds that the Federal Rules of Evidence provide a hearsay exception in a civil case or a homicide prosecution for a statement made by a now-unavailable declarant while believing his death to be imminent, provided the statement concerns the cause or circumstances of what he believed to be his impending death. Should you recommend to the judge that the paramedic’s testimony is admissible? Select one.
