BILL NUMBER: S7561 SPONSOR: HOYLMAN-SIGAL TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the executive law, in relation to procedures for appointment and reappointment of notaries public, certificates of offi- cial character, and certification of electronic notarial records PURPOSE OF THE BILL: This legislation would amend the Executive Law to require renewal of notary public commissions to be submitted to and processed by the Secre- tary of State. The legislation would also clarify requirements relating to transmission of records between the Secretary of State and County Clerks, add language relating to electronic notary public registration, and align the fees in the Executive Law associated with certificates of official character of notaries public and certification of notarial signatures with the fees for the same services set forth in the Civil Practice Law and Rules (CPLR). Finally, this legislation makes a techni- cal correction to the process by which an electronic notary may certify a papered out copy of the signature page of an electronically notarized document.
