Can a notary refuse to sign a document because the notary works in a bank and you are not an account holder at that bank in North Carolina?
Absolutely not. The title is Notary Public, not Notary Private. If the notary usually signs public documents as part of their workday, meaning the employer is aware and allows the notary to notarize for the public while at work (bank notaries typically have this authority), the notary must notarize for everyone with no conditions. If the notary usually does this service for free, the notary must do it for free for everyone with no conditions. Some notaries are employed to only notarize for their company, so this type of notary could refuse to notarize a document during their workday, but those notaries are in the back offices. Few things anger me as much as a bank notary public pulling the old "I can only notarize if you have an account" lie. This common situation is usually discussed in detail in the notary test materials themselves. The title is Notary Public. If you're motivated or angry enough, figure out which local agency oversees notaries, send for the notary rulebook and figure out how to properly report the bank-notary for being guilty of notary offenses.
