What is the name of your state? Missouri
I am involved in a real mess in a civil case that has yet to go to trial. It involves forgery, fraud, and a whole lot of other charges. The defendant took a signed and noterized quit claim,and made a copy of the notery page. She didn't like the wording on the original quit claim, so made another one out, forged my name, and attached the original notary page to it and filed it with the register of deeds office, for a sale of property. This was caught in time, so the sale didn't go thru. She kept the original quit claim, attached a copy of the notary page to it, and the sheriff has all the paper work until the trial is over with. The defendant is saying, that after the trial, she is going to just re file the original quit claim, and everything will be OK. My question: If a original quit claim has a copy of a notary page attached to it instead of a original notary, isn't it considered invaled and worthless?
