What must be approved by the Lieutenant Governor?

  1. Wills

  2. Oath and Bond

  3. Loan agreements

  4. Property deeds

The correct answer is: Oath and Bond

The approval of the Oath and Bond by the Lieutenant Governor is essential because this process solidifies the authority and legal standing of notaries public in Utah. When a notary is appointed, they are required to take an oath of office and provide a bond to ensure they will operate within legal and ethical boundaries. The Lieutenant Governor's approval serves as an official acknowledgment that the notary has met the necessary qualifications and is thus permitted to perform notarial acts. This process is a safeguard for the public and reinforces the legitimacy of the notarial role, ensuring that notaries can be trusted to uphold the integrity of their duties.
