Practice question: Claims Against Estate (Rule 86)

Multiple Choice Medium

Practice question

A written-instrument claim is filed with a copy bearing all indorsements. The administrator demands exhibition of the original, which remains available. What must the claimant do?
  1. Refuse because a copy always conclusively proves the instrument.
  2. Destroy the original after submitting the copy.
  3. Exhibit only the blank reverse of the copy.
  4. Exhibit the original on the demand; attaching the copy does not eliminate that duty.
  5. Require the administrator to prove the instrument never existed.
