FROM:	Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	HB1217 by Parker (Relating to appointment of and performance of notarial acts by an electronic notary public; authorizing a fee and creating a criminal offense.), As Introduced

The provisions of the bill addressing felony sanctions are the subject of this analysis. The bill would amend the Government Code as it relates to appointment of and performance of notarial acts by an electronic notary public. The provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on the demand for state correctional resources.
