duly sworn

duly sworn
Having been put under oath, before an officer authorized to administer oaths, in the manner and form required by law. Garner v State, 28 Fla 113. An allegation that one did depose and swear is not the equivalent of alleging that being "duly sworn," he did depose and say. A man may depose as well before an oath has been administered to him as afterwards. Likewise a person may "swear" who is not duly sworn. United States v M'Conaughy (DC Or) 33 F 168, 169. See swear.
