[WSBAPT] Certification of a Complaint v. Declaration of Witness

[Dalynne Singleton]

>From Legal Dictionary:

"Verification in the legal context refers to a declaration under oath or upon penalty of perjury that a statement or pleading is true. The verification is located at the end of a document. If a complaint is verified then the answer to the complaint must be verified."

In pleading. A certain formula with which all pleadings containing new affirmative matter must conclude, being in itself an averment that the party pleading is ready to establish the truth of what he has set forth. In practice<https://thelawdictionary.org/in-practice/>. The examination<https://thelawdictionary.org/examination/> of a writing for the purpose of ascertaining its truth; or a certificate<https://thelawdictionary.org/certificate/> or affidavit that it is true. "Verification<https://thelawdictionary.org/verification-2/>-' is not identical with "authentication<https://thelawdictionary.org/authentication/>." A notary may verify a mortgagee's written statement of the actual amount of his claim, but need not authenticate the act by his seal. Ashley v. Wright, 19 Ohio St. 291. Confirmation<https://thelawdictionary.org/confirmation/> of the correctness, truth, or authenticity<https://thelawdictionary.org/authenticity/> of a pleading, account, or other paper, by an affidavit, oath, or deposition. See McDonald v. Rosengarten, 134 111. 126, 25 N. E. 429; Summerfield v. Phoenix Assur. Co. (C. C-) 65 Fed. 296; Patterson v. Brooklyn, 6 App. Div. 127, 40 N. Y. Supp. 581.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Certification of a Complaint v. Declaration of Witness

Listmates,

This is an off topic question.  Is a client's certification of a Complaint the same thing as a Client's Declaration, filed in support of summary judgment, setting forth the same facts in the Complaint?
