Which act is outside the authority of a New York notary public?

Detailed Explanation

New York notaries have broad but not unlimited authority. Executive Law §135 authorizes oaths, affidavits, depositions, and acknowledgments, but Domestic Relations Law §11 makes clear that a notary public has no authority to solemnize a marriage. Not to be confused with taking an acknowledgment on a written contract of marriage, which is a separate issue.
