Jim and Sara were partners in a company.  Mike was their secretary.  During an argument, Jim pointed a gun at Sara in her office, and threatened to shoot if she left (there were two exits to the office, and Jim was blocking one of them).  Jim held Sara in her office for 30 minutes before allowing her to leave.  Sara later filed charges against Jim for False Imprisonment, Assault, and Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress.  Mike was present during the incident.  The next day after the incident, Mike told his friend Joan about the incident, and told Joan that he (Mike) had stood and blocked one of the exit doors to ensure that Sara could not escape.  That same day, Mike left town, and has not been seen, heard from, or found since.     In the Sara v. Jim case, Sara’s attorney wishes to call Joan to testify about Mike’s statement to prove thta Jim held Sara against her will at gunpoint.  What particular objection could be made to Mike’s testimony and why?? If the objection is made, outline ALL possible exceptions to that objection (and indicate whether they will work or not and why, outline every exception to the objection).
