Electronic-record presumption permits inference that signatures on qualifying aged records were validly affixed by identified signatories or authorised persons.
Section 90A permits the Court to presume that an electronic signature was affixed by the identified person or an authorised person when a five-year-old electronic record is produced from proper custody. Proper custody includes the place and care in which the record would naturally be kept, while custody with a proved or probable legitimate origin is not improper. The same custody explanation applies to the electronic-record presumption under section 81A.
