Section 7-3-308 Proof of signatures and status as holder in due course. (a) In an action with
respect to an instrument, the authenticity of, and authority to make, each signature on the
instrument is admitted unless specifically denied in the pleadings. If the validity of a signature

as a party to the instrument, the plaintiff has the burden of establishing that the defendant
is liable on the instrument as a represented person under Section 7-3-402(a). (b) If the validity
of signatures is admitted or proved and there is...
