A gentleman asked me to notarize his signature on a document. He showed me his "current" California drivers license. It had the correct photo, physical description, issued March 2008, expires March 2013, birthdate. So what's the problem? On the signatue line of his drivers license he signed it "Without Prejudice". No signature what so ever, just "without prejudice".
He had no other form of I.D. This was for a Deed and I refused to notarize. I could not compare his signature. He did not want to use Credible Witnesses. No passport.
I called the SOS, the DMV and (I know) the NNA. The SOS said call an attorney, the NNA said, don't notarize, the DMV said, "If he said that's his signature, then that's his signature, there is nothing we can do." B.S.
Seems this comes from "Common Law v. Statutory Jurisdiction". However; from what I've read, you put "Without Prejudice" above your signature.
I found this excerpt from: http://www.buildfreedom.com/tl/wua13.shtml
Are there attorneys that could elaborate on this and any way to accept something like this? |
