Well... in CA not all notarizations require the person to actually sign in front of you... but they DO require personal appearance, etc. Sadly, this person, like a lot of desk jockey notaries, does this kind of thing all the time in the interest of convenience. They really don't understand that in CA, you can be arrested for some of that.
I'm more interested to learn what the the CA Secretary of State has in store for her... that ought to be a lot worse than $5,000 fine.
I note that her name doesn't appear on the current list of active CA notaries. |
