SB1805 requires county recorders to verify the status of notaries public on quitclaim deeds and reject documents if the notary is not active.
SB1805 amends Arizona law to mandate that county recorders verify the status of notaries public on quitclaim deeds before recording them. The recorder must check if the notary is listed as active in the state's database. If the notary is not active, the recorder must reject the document and inform the person attempting to record it. The bill also allows county recorders to refer individuals suspected of fraudulent activity to the county attorney for investigation and possible prosecution.
