    The judge and/or jury is free to give the statements over a phone call as much weight as they think they deserve. But they are not anything even remotely related to "proof".

    Such recordings ARE "evidence," however. Evidence that would be submitted in an attempt to prove some element of the offense, I imagine.

    Not saying they aren't evidence. The OP evidently believed, however, that they constitute proof which cannot be denied. They do not.

    True enough.

    I agree that the phone conversation is hard to be admissible in the court of law. I can call you up and say that I promise to do some work for you but without a written contract its hard to enforce anything verbal. I could even promise my friend that if I win the lottery he will get half. But unless its in writing its inadmissible in court.

    Verbal contracts are enforceable with some exceptions.
