Art. 38.44. ADMISSIBILITY OF ELECTRONICALLY PRESERVED 
DOCUMENT.  An electronically preserved document has the same legal 
significance and admissibility as if the document had been 
maintained in hard-copy form.  If a party opposes admission of the 
document on the grounds that the document has been materially 
altered, the proponent of the document must disprove the allegation 
by a preponderance of the evidence.
