When examining a witness about the witness' prior statement whether written or not, a party need not show it or disclose its contents to the witness.

Extrinsic evidence of a witness' prior inconsistent statement may be excluded unless the witness is afforded an opportunity to explain or deny the statement and the opposing party is afforded an opportunity to interrogate on the statement, or the interests of justice otherwise require. This rule does not apply to admissions of a party opponent as defined in Rule 803(b). Adopted September 15, 1992 to be effective 7/1/1993: paragraphs (a) and (b) caption and text amended amended September 16, 2019, effective 7/1/2020.
