Sec.  92.24  Usual form of affidavit.



    Affidavits are usually drawn by competent attorneys or are set out 

in established forms. The form and substantive requirements of an 

affidavit depend principally upon the purpose for which it is made and 

the statutes of the jurisdiction where it is intended to be used. When a 

notarizing officer finds it necessary in the discharge of his official 

duties to prepare an affidavit, or when he assists a private person in 

preparing an affidavit (see Sec.  92.11(b)), he should, where possible, 

consult the pertinent statutory provisions.
