Expired: If the Notary has expired (meaning the expiration date has passed), while under Judicial Emergency Order for COVID-19, one may still complete a renewal application.  However, if the expiration date falls on a Saturday or Sunday, one has until the following Monday to mail in the renewal application.  If the notary expired prior to March 23rd, please complete a new Notary Application and bring it in to the Clerk’s Office when it will reopen on May 14.
