Yes, a notary can face legal consequences, including jail time, for illegally notarizing a document. This may occur if the notary fails to verify the signer's identity, forges signatures, or notarizes documents without the signer's presence. Such actions are considered fraud and can lead to criminal charges, fines, and the loss of notary commission. The specific penalties vary by jurisdiction and the severity of the offense.
What else can I help you with?
What if a licensed notary emails an unlicensed notary soliciting work in order to trap this notary?
I am unsure what an "unlicensed" notary is. If a notary's commission has expired, that person is no longer a notary and cannot legally notarize documents. If a notary with an expired-commission notarizes a document, the expired-commission notary can face fines or jail-time. The legal status of the improperly notarized document varies from state to state. Asking an expired notary to work, via email or otherwise, is not a crime and does not necessarily constitute an attempt at fraud. If an uncommissioned notary is soliciting work, that person is committing fraud.
What is the law in Ohio if a notary lets someone who isn't a notary use his stamp and let them forge his name legal?
If the notary allowed his stamp to be used, he can have his notary license removed, he can be fined, and, can also receive jail time. However, the transaction that was improperly/illegally notarized MAY still be legal because Ohio law is strange sometimes. Generally, the punishments are monetary and the trouble you get in will be directly related to the costs incurred by the other parties involved. If you helped someone sell a house illegally, you can be held liable for the entire cost of the house plus legal fees for all parties.
