14-12A-8. Refusal to notarize.
A. A notary public shall not refuse to perform a notarial act based on a principal's race, age, gender, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, health or disability or status as a non-client or non-customer of the notary public or the notary public's employer.
B. A notary public shall perform a notarial act for a person requesting such an act who tenders the appropriate fee, unless:
(1) the notary public knows or has good reason to believe that the notarial act or the associated transaction is unlawful;
(2) the act is prohibited; or
(3) the number of notarial acts requested practicably precludes completion of all acts at once, in which case the notary public shall arrange for later completion of the remaining acts.
