Sec. 788. CLAIMS MUST BE AUTHENTICATED

Latest version.

Except as provided by Section 792 of this code, with respect to the payment of an unauthenticated claim by a guardian, a guardian of the estate may not allow and the court may not approve a claim for money against the estate, unless the claim is supported by an affidavit that the claim is just and that all legal offsets, payments, and credits known to the affiant have been allowed. If the claim is not founded on a written instrument or account, the affidavit must also state the facts on which the claim is founded. A photostatic copy of an exhibit or voucher necessary to prove a claim under this section may be offered with and attached to the claim instead of the original.
