Powers & Duties of Notary

A bank opens a safe-deposit box under Banking Law §335, and the notary prepares a certificate under seal that states only the date and the lessee's name. What key item is still missing?

A

The inventory of the contents.

B

The notary's college degree.

C

The county clerk's authentication certificate.

D

A second notary's countersignature.

Correct Answer

A. The inventory of the contents.

AI Explanation

The certificate must describe what was found. As reflected in the booklet's Banking Law §335 special note, the notary's certificate under seal should state the date, the lessee's name, and the inventory of contents. Unlike the separate ten-day mailing requirement, this question tests what belongs inside the certificate itself.
