Commonwealth v. Brady
''Commonwealth v. Brady'', 507 A.2d 66 (Pa. 1986), is a case decided by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania in 1986 which overruled close to two centuries of decisional law in Pennsylvania and established a common law exception to the rule against hearsay.
== The Rule of Law ==
The decision stands for the proposition that the recorded, adopted statement of a witness to a crime ''which is inconsistent with her testimony at trial'' is properly admitted for both purposes of impeachment and as substantive evidence, i.e. "for its truth."〔For an explanation of the meaning of substantive evidence, see Hearsay.〕 In ''Commonwealth v. Lively'', 610 A.2d 7 (Pa. 1992), the rule was extended with respect to "verbatim contemporaneous recording() of . . . oral statement()," provided the "recordings" are electronic, audiotape, or videotape.〔See also Commonwealth v. Kimbell available (here ).〕
