What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NEW YORK

I am not sure what type of the Law my post falls under, I am nonetheless addressing it here. You might redirect me to its proper locale if need be.

I have proof that an affiant provided the incorrect signature on an release/waiver Affidavit.

What proof you might ask?
I sent a cashier check to that person several months ago. I will have to disburse a larger amount to the same person at a later time. Therefore, sent a waiver/release in a form of an affidavit and boom! I got my proof.

How you might ask?
I requested a copy, front and back, of the endorsed check from my bank and confirmed my allegation; which is now a fact.

Does that falls under purjury?

Any input will be greatly appreciated.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

I read it twice and I still have no clue what you're trying to ask. Did the guy sign someone else's name? Or are the two names just in different handwriting?

Either way - why do you care?

I do and should if the person comes back later to tell me or a court that it is not his/her signature. The person added his/her given name in that affidavit.
Same handwriting though. If the same id is provided (driver's license) for both endorsing the check and to the notary, there should not be any discrepancies period.

That's not necessarily true. Stage names, middle/full names, pen names, religious names, legally changed names... there are a lot of reasons why they may differ, and most are not illegal.

I agree with YAG, WTF?

If you want someone to agree with your opinion (whatever that is) great. I don"t see the value in something like this forum.

What is happening? What do you claim?
