§ 1421 Writing Authentication Evidence

• •If a note or letter talks about stuff only one person would know, it can help prove that person wrote it.
• •This is used to show that a document is real and not fake.
• •It’s like when you get a secret message that only your best friend would know about.

You find a handwritten note saying, 'Remember the time we got lost at the fair and ate cotton candy under the big oak tree?'

If only you and your friend know about that secret moment, the note can help prove your friend wrote it.
