A good one-word definition of hearsay: Gossip
No, hearsay is not admissible in any court case unless it falls under one of 18 exceptions. These exceptions are thought to remove the problems of hearsay testimony.
No, since the question presumes the evidence is hearsay; therefore it is inadmissible even if the witness had the highest degree of credibility. There are many exceptions to the hearsay rule and many instances where an out of court statement seems to be inadmissible hearsay but is not (i.e. non hearsay hearsay), that it serves no purpose to provide facts that would allow the statement to be used at trial. If the question posed more facts than just the statement that the evidence is hearsay, they would show whether the statement is admissible under an exception or as non hearsay hearsay. Once the statement is admitted as evidence it would be up to the jury to determine if the witness is believable.
A statement by a witness that recounts something he or she heard from someone else, rather than something that he or she saw.
