1Opinion of the CourtHazouri, J.

This is a dispute between a builder and a homeowner regarding the construction of a house. A jury trial resulted in a verdict in favor of the homeowner. The builder now appeals, raising various issues regarding the proceeding below. We choose to address only the claim of error that the trial court erred in admitting, over appellants’ objection, hearsay letters of alleged threats .and harassment of a witness by appellant, Isbell. We conclude that the trial court erred in this regard, which requires reversal for a new trial. We therefore do not address the other points on appeal.
