Why is a sworn affidavit necessary in some court cases?

A sworn affidavit is necessary in court cases to provide a written statement of facts or evidence under oath. This helps to ensure the accuracy and truthfulness of the information provided, as it subjects the individual making the affidavit to potential penalties for perjury if they provide false information. Sworn affidavits help establish a formal record of testimony or evidence that can be used as part of the legal proceedings.
