Which of the following statements is NOT correct?

A

Real Property Law §309-a supplies the substantially compliant certificate form for acknowledgments or proofs within New York.

B

Real Property Law §309-b supplies the substantially compliant certificate form for acknowledgments or proofs taken without New York.

C

Uniform form provisions in §309-a and §309-b deal with acknowledgment or proof certificates relating to real property instruments.

D

Real Property Law §309-b is the uniform form used only for a civil deposition before a notary.

Correct Answer

D. Real Property Law §309-b is the uniform form used only for a civil deposition before a notary.

AI Explanation

The uniform-form sections belong to real-property acknowledgments and proofs, not depositions. Real Property Law §§309-a and 309-b provide substantially compliant certificate forms for acknowledgments or proofs within and without New York. Not to be confused with CPLR 3113, these sections do not govern civil depositions.
