Can and will this be appealed to the Supreme Court? It seems that if the law says they must match, what is the judge saying that it’s OK if they don’t?
“...what is the judge saying that it’s OK if they don’t?”
Nearly everyone will sign something a bit differently every time. In fact a perfect match is a sign of forgery. But, except apparently for a poster above, just about everyone will sign their name pretty much the same way.
This judge is apparently saying that two completely different signatures have to be accepted because someone is making some kind of subjective judgement as to whether or not they match. If you think about it, he is saying that signatures should not be used at all, which is changing the law.
I wonder if he feels the same way about his checks or signed affidavits in his court?
