Would CW's be acceptable? Your CA handbook says they must swear to, among other things, the following:
"3. The credible witness reasonably believes that the circumstances of the signer are such that it would be very difficult or impossible for the signer to obtain another form of identification;"
As long as the above fits I guess CW's will be acceptable. If not, if it's just a case of he hasn't bother to change his DL or hasn't gotten around to it yet, then IMO you should direct him to take his court papers and get a new DL and then come back. JMHO

You need credible witnesses. Here is why.
Court papers are not a substitute or an acceptable supplement to a government issued picture identification. The court papers do not have a picture, a physical description, or an expiration date, and may or may not have the signature of the person in question.
Sometimes a signature affidavit and AKA statement can help with name changes. You might want to ask an attorney about using that document when dealing with name discrepencies. |

I have a signer with the following name issues because he had his name changed and will show me the court papers to prove it. Would the court papers be enough along with his CDL, or do I need two credible witnesses? And, if I use two credible witnesses with proper i.d., would I still use or note the CDL of my signer in my journal?
CDL= John Smith
Documents= John S. Avery
