There shall be no difference hereafter, in Guam, between sealed and unsealed writings. A writing under seal may therefore be changed, or altogether discharged by a writing not under seal.
SOURCE: CCP § 1932.

COMMENT: At common law, the sealing of private writings had legal significance. As indicated by this Section, certain sealed writings could not be changed except by other sealed writings. However, this distinction has been abolished at least since 1953 when the Code of Civil Procedure was enacted.

Therefore, former CCP § 1929-1931, delineating the difference between sealed and unsealed writings, defining a seal and describing how such seals are made, have been eliminated. Since sealed documents no longer have any effect, there is no need to prescribe in law the means by which such seals are made nor to delineate the difference between sealed and unsealed documents.

This Section, and the deletion of the former CCP sections relative to seals, do not affect the law on notary seals which, in any event, is contained in 5 Guam Code Ann., Chapter 34.
