No foundation proof of the signature of the certifying officer or of the seal or absence of seal shall be required to admit the certificate and copy certified in evidence, but if any party to the proceeding shall prove at any stage of the proceeding that the certificate is not the genuine certificate of the officer certifying, such record shall be stricken from the evidence and the court or other tribunal shall make such orders, deferring or amending any decision based thereon, or granting further hearing or time, and imposing terms and enforcing such other discipline upon the party offering such record as to the court may seem warranted.
