In my opinion RULONA is weak in the area of oral oaths with no signed document. For example, if a notary administers an oral oath with no signed document, the notary must fill out a notarial certificate. But unlike most of the other notarial acts, there is no short-form certificate for this situation, so the notary has to invent a certificate. Also, the law doesn't tell the notary what to do with the certificate after it's filled out. |
