Can a SC notary win the lottery?
The South Carolina Lottery Commission said the only people not allowed to win the lottery are public officials who take an oath of office. However, the interesting part to this is while notaries are not typically considered public officials, since they take an oath, they may not take the lottery money home.
Are notary seals required?
Notaries must have and use a stamp or seal. If you are a current notary and have a seal that has all of this information except for the expiration date, you may obtain a black ink stamp that has your name and the expiration date. You then would use both the stamp and the seal each time you notarize a document.
Can a notary also be a witness in South Carolina?
In certain states you can act as both Notary and witness, while in others you can’t. In Connecticut, Florida and South Carolina, the Notary may act as a witness; in Georgia and Louisiana, the Notary may not. Signature witnesses do not need to be identified and their signatures are not notarized.
Why do you need a witness for a mortgage deed?
Who can be a witness to the signatory of a deed? There is no statutory provision requiring a witness in these circumstances to be independent. However the purpose of having a witness is so that they can provide unbiased evidence of what was signed and by whom, if required in the future.
What is the difference between deed and agreement?
An agreement is an understating between all parties that may be in verbal or written form and may not be valid in court. However, a deed is a legal tool containing all obligations and rights of parties entering into an agreement, and it is legally-sound in court.
Is a loan agreement a deed?
There is no requirement to have a loan agreement witnessed as it is not a deed and therefore can be signed under hand as a simple contract. It is also vital to consider security documents which support the loan agreement.
