Definition of chain-certificate method

The chain-certificate method is a process used to verify the authenticity of a foreign official record that is being presented as evidence in a trial. This method is outlined in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Rule 44.

For example, if a party in a trial wants to use a birth certificate from another country as evidence, they would need to use the chain-certificate method to prove that the document is authentic. This would involve obtaining a series of certificates from various officials in the foreign country, each certifying the authenticity of the previous certificate in the chain.

The chain-certificate method is important in ensuring that foreign documents are reliable and can be used as evidence in a trial.
