Section 1202 Of Chapter 1. General Provisions From California Evidence Code >> Division 10. >> Chapter 1.
1202
. Evidence of a statement or other conduct by a declarant that
is inconsistent with a statement by such declarant received in
evidence as hearsay evidence is not inadmissible for the purpose of
attacking the credibility of the declarant though he is not given and
has not had an opportunity to explain or to deny such inconsistent
statement or other conduct. Any other evidence offered to attack or
support the credibility of the declarant is admissible if it would
have been admissible had the declarant been a witness at the hearing.
For the purposes of this section, the deponent of a deposition taken
in the action in which it is offered shall be deemed to be a hearsay
declarant.
