Proof of execution for attested documents requires an attesting witness, subject to the registered non-will exception.
Section 68 requires proof of execution before a document legally required to be attested may be used as evidence. At least one attesting witness must be called where the witness is alive, subject to the court's process, and capable of giving evidence. For registered documents other than wills, this requirement does not apply unless execution is specifically denied by the purported executant.
