§ 1418 Handwriting Expert Comparison

• •If someone says a signature or handwriting is fake, an expert can compare it to real writing to check.
• •The real writing can be something the other person already agreed was real.
• •The court has to be sure the real writing is actually real before comparing.

Someone signs a contract, but later says it's not their signature.

A handwriting expert can compare the contract signature to a real one (like from a driver's license) to see if it matches. If the court is sure the driver's license signature is real, they can use it to check.
