I'll offer an opinion, not legal advice, etc. If he signed the docs "John T. Smith s/p/a John W. Smith", then wouldn't you be acknowledging that he signed it that way? I would guess it was there to cover a typo on the name. I've been of the understanding that the notary ack needs to match the signature on the docs. Again, this is one of the middle initial issues. Was it covered on the name/signature/aka affidavit? |
