Σελίδα 259 - It is argued that this act provides only for the admission of such records as evidence, but does not declare the effect of such evidence when admitted. This argument cannot be supported. The act declares that the record duly authenticated shall have such faith and credit as it has in the state court from whence it is taken. If in such court it has the faith and credit of evidence of the highest nature, namely, record evidence, it must have the same faith and credit in every other court.
Σελίδα 253 - But the general rule is, that there can be no averment in pleading against the validity of a record, though there may be against its operation.
