What type of evidence is provided by a witness that attests to something that he experienced with his five senses?

A.
Direct

B.
Hearsay

C.
Best

D.
Secondary

Explanation:
Answer A is correct; direct evidence is that which a witness attests to having heard, seen, or otherwise directly experienced with his five senses.

Incorrect Answers and Explanations: B, C, and D: Answers B, C, and D are incorrect. Hearsay evidence is indirect or secondhand evidence. Though direct evidence is preferred under the best evidence rule, best evidence is not a specific type of evidence, but rather is a principle that the courts use to indicate which evidence is most desirable. Secondary evidence is a copy of an original document rather than actual oral testimony.
