Hi Scott, as you were just saying about "Setting the Record"....
SM> I've take such an oath myself as a notary, and even though I am
SM> NOT
SM> sworn to enforce laws, I take that oath extremely seriously because I
SM> legally represent the court as such.
SM>
SM> Obviously I can't know for an absolute if the person who appeared
SM> before me told the absolute truth, but I've notarized a document and
SM> such document contains my signature, or in most cases, has my name
SM> stamped on it and is sealed, I've personally stated "I attest that the
SM> information contained herewith is accurate", therefore I am responsible
SM> *to an extent* for the accuracy of such information. As is the case
SM> with Sworn Law Enforcement Personnel.
Hmmmm, interesting. Both my wife and I have been notaries in two
different states and our notarie stamps and signatures on a statement
only indicated that proper identification was presented by the
signer(s) that showed he/she (they) was (were) who they claimed to be.
We were notarizing the validity of the signature(s), *not* the
accuracy of the document to which it was affixed.
