any officer thereof; or when the State, or any officer thereof in its
behalf, is a party, the verification may be made by any person acquainted
with the facts; except that in actions prosecuted by the Attorney
General, in behalf of the State, the pleadings need not, in any case, be
verified.

verification may be made by the attorney, such verification may be by him
made on information and belief if the facts are not within his knowledge.
5. The affidavit may be in substantially the following form and
need not be subscribed before a notary public:
Under penalties of perjury, the undersigned declares that he is the

the manner in which others motions are made.
