"A notary public is an officer of the State. By a 1964 constitutional amendment, a notary, unlike other State officers, may hold another public office. A notary public, in the exercise of duties, is held to the same high standards of public trust as other appointed and elected State officials."
"A notary public is responsible for reading and understanding State Government Article, Title 18, Annotated Code of Maryland, as well as regulations, this handbook, and other public guidance issued by the Office of the Secretary of State relating to responsibilities of notaries public and performance of notarial acts."
"...A Maryland notary public may only perform notarial acts under the authority of their Maryland notary public commission while physically located in Maryland."
