SXW test file

Purpose: Provide example for this file type


Document file type: SXW
Version: 1.0
Remark:

Example Content:

The names "John Doe" or "John


Roe" for men, "Jane Doe" or "Jane
Roe" for women, or "Johnnie Doe"
and "Janie Doe" for children, or just
"Doe" non-gender-specifically are
used as placeholder names for a
party whose true identity is
unknown or must be withheld in a
legal action, case, or discussion.
The names are also used to refer to a corpse or hospital patient whose identity is
unknown. This practice is widely used in the United States and Canada, but is rarely
used in other English-speaking countries including the United Kingdom, whence the use
of "John Doe" in a legal context originates. The names "Joe Bloggs" or "John Smith" are
used in the UK as placeholder names, (mainly to mean 'any old person', the classic
'Everyman') as well as in Australia and New Zealand.
