Wash. Admin. Code § 491-04-170

Current through Register Vol. 24-21, November 1, 2024

Section 491-04-170 - Can I submit medical reports instead of having to pay a doctor to testify?

You must present the testimony of your witness. Witnesses may appear tele-phonically (see WAC 491-04-220). Reports or letters are considered hearsay. Hearsay statements are not usually admissible because the opposing party cannot cross-examine the person making the statement to test the statement's accuracy.
