BASIS OF HANDWRITING IDENTIFICATION
A. In WIGNORE'S PRINCIPLES OF JUDICIAL PROOF, HANDWRITING is defined as a visible effect of bodily movement which is an almost unconscious expression of fixed muscular habits, reacting from fixed mental impression of certain ideas associated with script form. B. Environment, education and occupation affect individuals so variously in the formation of these muscular habits that finally the act of writing becomes an almost automatic succession of acts stimulated by these habits. C. The imitation of the style of writing by another person becomes difficult because the other person cannot by mere will power reproduce in himself all the muscular combination from the habit of the first writer.
