Did you know that you can’t be a NY Notary Public if you’ve been convicted of “jostling.”
That would wipe out everyone who’s ever ridden the subway.

Purely out of curiosity, what’s the penalty if you are convicted of “jostling” in NY?
It’s a Class A misdemeanor punishable with up to one year in prison.
Are you kidding me?! Is it really enforced, though, or is it one of those where it won’t matter unless you, say, push someone off the platfor onto the tracks?
I’d never heard of it. I’m taking a test to be a notary public and that was one of the things on the list. Wacky.
It’s the “convicted” part that’s important. Committing the act, without or without getting caught isn’t the problem.
The issue is that New Yorkers don’t want a pushy notary telling them what to do. Take the document given you, watch the client sign it, and put your sig and stamp on it. Don’t give anyone lip about it. 😉
Oh, I won’t get caught jostling.
Maybe they mean some other kind of jostling that we haven’t heard about. You know, legal jostling or something…
