You must inform the person that you are recording the conversation or a beep sound must be made every 15 seconds on the conversation so the person knows you are recording. This doesnt apply if it is from a recorded message that some one leaves on your message machine.

Voice recordings are admissable in court providing they are relevant, and there is evidence that the person recorded is the person who's voice it is purported to be. If the recording is made over the telephone in some states, but not all, & not in Federal jurisdictions, such recordings are only admissable if the recorded person knows of or has consented to the recording.

"this is a state by state issue. Some states allow "one-party" consent, thereby allowing the recorder of the conversation to give consent, hence the one-party fulfillment of the statue. "

Only if both parties are in the same state during the recording.

If the parties are in different states, Federal Law is in effect and it could not be used if there was not a court order in place allowing the wiretap or recording or if BOTH parties were not aware of or consented to being recorded.

The rules variety from state the state. you could particularly tape in maximum states in case you have advised the different individual you're taping and that they don't merchandise. secret taping is often greater of a situation, quite on the telephone -- it somewhat is considered wiretapping. Receiving answering device message and keeping them as data -- no situation -- human beings understand they are being taped. Video cameras would be ok in the event that they have no sound and are not in areas the place human beings have a life like expectation of privateness -- many nannies have been caught being propose to toddlers on "nanny cams." the only thank you to be certain which you do're wiuthin the regulation is to envision the guidelines on your state.

I agree with Chasity, she is correct, this is a state by state issue. Some states allow "one-party" consent, thereby allowing the recorder of the conversation to give consent, hence the one-party fulfillment of the statue.

You can show it to the court and as long as the court believes the people on the tape are who you say they are, the tape can prove guilt or innocence.

The general answer is that if the recording was obtained with the knowledge of one person, then it may be admissible in court.

Of course, it has to be relevant and material also.

It is illegal to record someone without their prior knowledge. Unless it is a recorded message from that person.(ei; answering machine, voice mail, text message, or e-mail.) Otherwise, you have to inform the person they are going to be recorded.
