In any trial where a deceased person's administrator or executor or a disabled person's or minor's guardian sues or defends no adverse party or person directly interested in the action can testify on his or her own behalf to any conversation with the deceased or minor or disabled person or to any event which took place in the presence of the deceased or minor or disabled person. There are certain exceptions among which are:

1. When the representative introduces testimony as to the conversation or event.

2. Matters concerning heirship can be testified to.

Of course a person who is not a party and not interested can testify and can be called by the advance party.
