Section 87 of BSA deals with presumptions regarding documents aged more than 30 years. It states that when a document is more than 30 years old, is produced from proper custody, and the handwriting and condition of the document appear to the Court to be consistent with its alleged age, the Court shall presume that such document is genuine unless the contrary is proved. This presumption inverts the burden of proof onto the challenger of the document's authenticity.
