61 - US v. Palik and the Relevance and Use of "Not Hearsay" Statements

In this episode we discuss the CAAF case of United States v. Palik, which involves an claim of ineffective assistance of counsel based on a failure to raise an R.C.M. 914 (Jencks Act) motion in hopes of forcing the trial court to disregard the testimony of the complaining witness.  The case gives us an opportunity to discuss both IAC and R.C.M. 914.  We also hear from Major Ciara Ryan on the issue of hearsay and, more specifically, evidence that is allowed as non-hearsay (e.g., effect on listener) and ensuring that evidence doesn't find its way into trial counsel's arguments.
