IANAL, but from what I've seen of scores of hours of time in depositions and courtroom situations is that presumed testimony from third-parties claiming to represent what other people were thinking or "wanting" get objected to immediately and are those objections are as a matter of course sustained by the judge. Such testimony is not allowed.
