proof of acknowledgment

Read a random definition: selective prospectivity

A quick definition of proof of acknowledgment:

Proof of acknowledgment is a way to show that someone signed a document and that the signature is real. An authorized person, like a notary public, checks that the person who signed the document is who they say they are and that they signed it on their own free will. This is important because it helps make sure that important documents are real and that people are not being forced to sign things they don't want to. It's like having a grown-up check your homework to make sure you did it yourself and that it's correct.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Proof of acknowledgment is a certification by an authorized officer that a person's signature on a document is genuine and was made freely. This certification is based on a third party's testimony and does not require the person to appear before the notary.

Examples:

  • A person signs a legal document and sends it to a notary public for proof of acknowledgment. The notary public contacts a third party who knows the person and can verify their signature. Based on this verification, the notary public certifies that the signature is genuine and was made freely.
  • A father publicly acknowledges a child as his own by signing the child's birth certificate or baptismal certificate. This is a formal acknowledgment.
  • A father acknowledges a child as his own by receiving the child into his family and supporting them. This is an informal acknowledgment.

These examples illustrate how proof of acknowledgment can be used to verify the authenticity of a signature on a legal document or to establish paternity.
