witness clause

Read a random definition: nudum pactum

A quick definition of witness clause:

A witness clause, also known as a testimonium clause, is a part of a legal document, such as a will, that states the date the document was signed, who signed it, and in what capacity. It usually starts with the phrase "In witness whereof." This clause is important for verifying the authenticity of the document. It is different from an attestation clause, which serves a similar purpose but is not the same thing.

A more thorough explanation:

A witness clause, also known as a testimonium clause, is a provision found at the end of a legal document, such as a will. It includes information about when the document was signed, who signed it, and in what capacity. The clause usually begins with the phrase "In witness whereof."

For example, a witness clause in a will might read:

"In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 1st day of January, 2022, in the presence of the undersigned witnesses."

This clause serves as evidence that the document was signed and witnessed properly. It helps to prevent disputes over the validity of the document in the future.

There’s someone I found on here with the username threeoutchange and if my understanding is correct that’s a reference to the debut album by a pretty cool 90s-00s Japanese band called Supercar. I geeked a little
