60-464. Authentication required; ancient documents. Authentication of a writing is required before it may be received in evidence. Authentication may be by evidence sufficient to sustain a finding of its authenticity or by any other means provided by law. If the judge finds that a writing (1) is at least thirty years old at the time it is offered, and (2) is in such condition as to create no suspicion concerning its authenticity, and (3) at the time of its discovery was in a place in which such a document, if authentic, would be likely to be found, it is sufficiently authenticated.

History: L. 1963, ch. 303, 60-464; Jan. 1, 1964.
