Notary public - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (3519 words) |
 | In 1279 the Archbishop of Canterbury was authorised by the Pope to appoint notaries. |
| In certain circumstances a notary may act for both parties to a transaction as long as there is no conflict between them, and in such cases it his or her duty is to ensure that the transaction that they conclude is fair to both sides. |
| A notary may only authenticate a person based upon that person's documentation of their identity (such as a driver's license or identification card), or by the notary's own personal knowledge of the person appearing before them, use of witnesses to identify an individual is not permitted. |
