In order to be found guilty of forgery, a prosecutor must prove intent, which means that you knowingly intended to deceive others. If your act of forgery was on someone else’s behalf, for example, signing a check, for which you had their permission which they then denied, a prosecutor must prove that consent was not actually given. Additionally, all evidence against you must be legally obtained.
