Great question! The document recipient is whomever the final, notarized set of documents needs to go to. For example, a health care power of attorney document many need to be filed with the hospital, so the hospital administrator that handles these documents would be the document recipient.
To my knowledge, you should do the notary journal first, then conduct the notarization. Ensure your journal is good to go as per your state statures. However, if your state does not require a journal, then it should be okay if they don't sign it since it not mandatory.
@@GenesisLirianoML Here's the story and the question will make more sense. A Will dated December 22 2021 was signed by two witnesses on the 29th of December . A jurat statement was made also on the 29th of December by the Notary. The Notary allows the two witnesses to sign the WILL dated December 22 2021 on the 29th then the Notary stamps the WILL and the jurat on the 29th of December . then the Notary makes the entries of the two witnesses in the Notary logs on the 29th of December. The Notary never saw the arthur of the WILL sing the WILL but a signature not signed by the author was on the WILL dated December 22 2021. Now the jurat says that the two witnesses seen the questionable WILL dated December 22 2021 and they claim that they both saw the person sign the WILL . So now the question is this : if the Notary never seen the author of any WILL sign anything "can" the Notary stamp the WILL with a Notary stamp . All entries of the Notarized document in the Notarys logs are dated December 29th. The Notary claim that the author of the WILL signature is nowhere in the Notarys logs.
Love this❤
I would have loved a visual along with the narrative.
Thank you good info
Who is considered the document recipient?

Can the Notary put the stamp on a document when the signers signature is not in the Notarys log book ?
