CURRENT BILL SUMMARY
SB 1320 - Under current law, certain business records are required to be notarized in order to be entered into evidence in a court proceeding. This act repeals those requirements and provides that such records shall not be deemed invalid for the reason that it uses an electronic signature or that it does not include a notarization. Additionally, any affidavit falsely made shall subject the signer to criminal penalties for perjury.
This act is identical to a provision in SB 143 (2205), in SB 397 (2025), in SCS/SB 1400 (2024), in SS/SCS/HCS/HB 1659 (2024), and in SCS/HCS/HB 2700 (2024).
