handwriting exemplars

handwriting exemplars
Samples of one's handwriting required in criminal cases involving forgery, kidnapping, etc., for comparison purposes. Compelling grand jury witness to produce handwriting and printing exemplars, to be used solely as standard of comparison in order to determine whether witness was author of certain writings, does not violate Fifth Amendment privilege although privilege might be asserted if government should seek more than physical characteristics of handwriting as by seeking to obtain written answers to incriminating questions or a signature on incriminating statement. U.S. Const.Amend. 5. U. S. v. Mara, 410 U.S. 19, 93 S.Ct. 774, 35 L.Ed.2d 99
