Art. 858 Same; official document or act

If you're writing a legal pleading and need to mention an official document (like a government record) or an official act (something a public official did as part of their job), you don't have to spell out every legal detail proving it was done correctly. You can simply state that the document was issued, or the act was performed, in compliance with the law.

This makes drafting easier. Instead of listing every law, regulation, or procedural step that was followed, you can use a simple, general statement. The other side can still challenge whether the document or act actually followed the law, but the person making the claim doesn't have to prove it point by point in the initial pleading.

In short, this rule saves time and paperwork. It lets people making legal claims skip the technical details about official documents or actions, as long as they say the document or act followed proper legal procedure.
