A notary public applies their seal to a California subdivision map. However, instead of using standard ink, they type their name, county of principal place of business, and commission expiration date directly below their signature. Is this legally acceptable?

Detailed Explanation

Subdivision Map Seal Exception. According to CA Gov. Code section 66436(c), because subdivision maps are drawn on mylar or materials that reject standard ink, an acknowledgment on a subdivision map is deemed complete without the official seal, provided the notary's name, county, and expiration date are typed or printed below their signature.
