Does a police officer have a right to write up a report hearsay at car accident he did not see?
A police officer can include hearsay in a report about a car accident, but it is typically not considered as strong evidence. Hearsay refers to information not directly witnessed by the officer, and while it may be documented, it should be clearly indicated as such. The officer's report can serve as a summary of the incident, including statements from involved parties or witnesses, but the reliability of hearsay can be questioned in legal contexts. Ultimately, the report should reflect the officer's observations and any statements made by others separately.
Is the report said the patient died on January 15 an example of hearsay?
Yes, the report stating that the patient died on January 15 could be considered an example of hearsay if it is presented in court to prove the truth of the matter asserted (i.e., that the patient actually died on that date). Hearsay involves statements made outside of court that are offered as evidence of the truth of the information contained within them. However, if the report is an official document or record that falls under an exception to the hearsay rule, it may be admissible as evidence.
Can hearsay of a habitual violator of a crime say a man with no record of such crime is the guilty party when all evidence is found on violator's property?
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.
What kind of evidence would not be mentioned in an opening statement in court?

Hearsay is not evidence, the court rules will not allow it to be heard. As you have stated in your question it is, by definition, INADMISSIBLE.
