This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - An employer's liability under A.R.S. § 41-331 is triggered by their knowledge of or consent to a notary-employee's misconduct. - A notary public is always personally liable for their own official misconduct, regardless of any instructions or pressure from an employer. - The excuse that you were "just following orders" is not a valid defense for a notary who has committed misconduct. - Exam questions on this topic are typically scenario-based, requiring you to determine if the notary, the employer, or both are liable. - Employers can also be found liable through negligent supervision, such as consistently ignoring complaints about a notary's improper procedures.
