It is a term that pertains to the evidence code and the admissibility of certain evidence at trial. It means someone did not agree to waive records custodians, and thus, any evidence introduced will need to have the foundation laid and properly authenticated before it is allowed to be admitted on the record.

I don't know the extent of what you're legal issue is, but if you are facing a trial date, especially in a divorce or custody issue, I would advise you that you seek legal representation immediately.

That means you have to introduce all records at trial through the records custodian, i.e. a person who will testify that the records you want to introduce are authentic. Attorneys waive this 99.99% of the time because it is otherwise a waste of time.
