jurat

jurat
The evidence that an affidavit has been duly sworn by the affiant; a certificate evidencing the fact that the affidavit was properly made before a duly authorized officer, the usual and proper form being "Subscribed and sworn to before me," followed by the date, signature, and title of the officer. 3 Am J2d Affi § 16. Although it has been said that, strictly speaking, the jurat is not a part of the affidavit, common prudence dictates that a properly executed jurat be attached to every affidavit. Cox v Stern, 170 Ill 442, 48 NE 906. See jurats.
