!. The statutory certificate for the au-
Identification of dispositions cannot be used
on the ordinary AFFIDAVIT and the code of
civil procedure prescribes no form of
jurat to be appended to affidavits.
2. If a declaration has in fact been
made under oath it is an affidavit although
no jurat be attached. The jurat is merely
evidence than an oath was duly admins
tered and in the absence of a jurat the
fact may be proved by evidence aliunde.
3. The evidence in this case examined
and held sufficient to show that writ
ten declaration used attachment
affidavit was in fact made under oath al
though no jurat appears.
f. When paper purporting to be an
affidavit has been approved by the court
as SUCH and has been made the basis of
judicial action as if it were duly anthem
ticated, the omission of a jurat is a mere
irregularity which will not expose the
proceeding to collateral attack.
g. The five year statute of limitations
against actions for the recovery of real
property sold on execution brought by the
execution debtor, his heirs, or any person
claiming under him by title acquired after
the date of the judgment, applies to all
sales, void and vofdabIe alike.
