What is a notarial protest?

A legal challenge to a notary's decision
A declaration that payment or acceptance was refused
A public demonstration against notary fees
A request for legal examination of a notary's records

The correct answer is: A declaration that payment or acceptance was refused

A notarial protest is a declaration made by a notary public that a payment or acceptance was refused by a party involved in a negotiable instrument, such as a bill of exchange or promissory note. This is typically used when a party has not fulfilled their obligation stated in the instrument. Option A is incorrect because a notarial protest is not a legal challenge to a notary's decision, but rather a statement made by the notary. Option C is incorrect because it is not related to notary fees. Option D is also incorrect because a notarial protest does not involve a request for legal examination of a notary's records, but rather a declaration of a specific event.
