Abstract- Forensic handwriting examination is a crucial part of the criminal justice system. Even though the handwriting of an individual is unique, it is subjected to undergo changes over time due to multiple reasons like age, practice, disease, external factors, etc. the present study helps in identifying the characteristics of an individual’s writing which undergoes the least amount of changes and which can be relied upon during examination even with the passage of time. The study was conducted on 200 respondents out of which 100 were male and 100 female. From each respondent, two samples of handwriting were collected at different time duration. The first writing sample was collected on 3rd march 2022 and the second sample was collected on 6th September 2022 with a difference of six-month duration. Hence a total of 400 writing samples were collected for analysis. The handwriting samples were examined for consistency of individual characteristics which included, size of alphabets/words, rhythm, angulation, style of writing, and terminal strokes. The study concluded that the handwriting of an individual undergoes variations with time. It was noted that the ‘individual characteristics’ in a person’s writing remains same and are least affected by time. The style of writing was retained 100% by all the respondents followed by, rhythm of the writing 95.25%, slant & angulation 91.5% and terminal strokes 89.5%.
