§ 24-4-40. Proof of identity

(a) Concordance of name alone is some evidence of identity. Residence, vocation, ownership of property, and other like facts may be proved. Reasonable certainty is all that can be required.

(b) In civil actions parties are generally relieved from the onus of proving identity, as it is a fact generally more easily disproved than established.
