EXAMINED COP (bouvier) | EXAMINED COPY. This phrase is applied to designate a paper which is a copy
of a record, public book, or register, and which has been compared with the
original. 1 Campb. 469.
2. Such examined copy is admitted in evidence, because of the public
inconvenience which would arise, if such record, public book, or register,
were removed from place to place, and because any fraud or mistake made in
the examined copy would be so easily, detected. 1 Greenl. Ev. Sec. 91; 1
Stark. Ev. 189-191. But an answer in chancery, on which the defendant was
indicted for perjury, or where the original must be produced in order to
identify the party by proof of handwriting, an examined copy would not be
evidence. 1 M. & Rob. 189. Vide Copy.
