Commonwealth v. Belknap

This is a Pennsylvania case but their rule for the medical treatment exception to the hearsay ban is the same as Federal Rule 803(4). This case provides an example of the exception in context, illustrates the potential scope of the rule, and provides a good example of the abuse of discretion standard.
