Sec. 92.24  Usual form of affidavit.

    Affidavits are usually drawn by competent attorneys or are set out 
in established forms. The form and substantive requirements of an 
affidavit depend principally upon the purpose for which it is made and 
the statutes of the jurisdiction where it is intended to be used. When a 
notarizing officer finds it necessary in the discharge of his official 
duties to prepare an affidavit, or when he assists a private person in 
preparing an affidavit (see Sec. 92.11(b)), he should, where possible, 
consult the pertinent statutory provisions.
