I partly agree with Linda H/FL, and partly disagree. I agree that the NV notary webpage makes it clear that a Nevada notary must not sign (as a notary) and/or stamp a document that lacks notarial wording. If the pile of pages being presented to LatteLady/NV consists of some documents that have notarial wording and some that do not, it is clear that the documents that lack notarial wording must not be signed (as a notary) or stamped.
I do not agree that every page is a different document. Consider a real estate deed. Let's imagine the first page of a five page deed names John Doe as the grantor and VT Syrup as the grantee. John Doe's signature and the acknowledgement certificate are on page five. Can I claim that it's OK for me to notarize, because page one is a different document than page five, and I'm not named on page five? Of course not. The whole deed is one document, and if I'm mentioned anywhere except as a witness or in the acknowledgement certificate.
This means that a law that prohibits a notary seal from being used on a document that lacks notarial wording does not, by itself, prohibit sealing every page of the document, so long as there is notarial wording on at least one page of the document. |
