| | Notary public - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Notary applications must be endorsed by a state legislator. |  | | Notaries in the United States are much less closely regulated than notaries in civil law jurisdictions or in most other common law countries. |  | | The regulation of notaries was modernised in the 1990s as a result of the Courts and Legal Services Act 1990, section 57. |

 | | A Notary is forbidden from preparing legal documents or acting as a legal advisor unless he or she is also an attorney. |  | | A notarization typically means the signer acknowledged to the Notary that he or she signed the document willingly or vouched under oath or affirmation that the contents of the document were true. |  | | Applicants are required to post a $10,000 4-year Notary Bond, posses a Notary seal, maintain a journal or record book of all notarial acts, and post a fee schedule (if they charge fees) of the fees they may legally charge. |

 | | A civil law notary should not be confused with a notary public which is a public office in common law jurisdiction that allows the office holder to administer oaths and perform certain witness functions. |  | | Civil law notaries are trained jurists who often receive the same training as advocating jurists — those with a legal education who become litigators such as barristers in the United Kingdom or les avocats of France. |  | | The most common areas of practice for civil law notaries are in property conveyancing and registration, contract drafting, commercial transactions, successions and other estate related matters. |

 | | A notary public commission issued by the State of Maryland does not authorize the holder to act as a notary public in another state or the District of Columbia. |  | | A notary public has no authority to certify a copy of a public record, a publicly recorded document, a school record or diploma, a professional license, or any other public or private document or record which does not pertain to the notary public's official acts. |  | | A notary may, however, refuse to notarize a document if the notarization would result in an illegal or improper act or the notary knows that the transaction is fraudulent. |

| | Maine Notaries & Dedimus Justices |
 | | Authentications/Apostilles are often called "legalizations," sometimes "incumbencies" or "certifications"; an apostille is a form of authentication appropriate to countries which have signed the 1961 Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents. |  | | But there is no reciprocity with other states -- this means that out-of-state Notaries or Justices of the Peace cannot obtain permission to officiate at marriages in Maine. |  | | Dedimus Justices perform a single function under Maine statute, that of swearing in various public officials, including Notaries Public. |
