My signer has brought two credible witnesses as his ID. How do I record this information in my journal? — C.E., Oxnard, California
Information about the credible witnesses should be entered in the section of the journal entry where you would record details about the signer’s identification. You will record the type of ID each credible witness presented to you, the serial number, issuance or expiration date, and the signature of each witness. This information may be placed in one journal line or two lines, if necessary.
Hotline answers are based on the laws in the state where the question originated and may not reflect the laws of other states. If in doubt, always refer to your own state statutes. – The Editors
