What is the penalty for a notary for performing notarial acts after their commission has expired?

Forfeiture of not more than $500 and ineligibility for reappointment
Forfeiture of not more than $100
A warning from the state
Probation period for 6 months

The correct answer is: Forfeiture of not more than $500 and ineligibility for reappointment

The penalty for a notary for performing notarial acts after their commission has expired is forfeiting not more than $500 and ineligibility for reappointment. This option is the only one that states both a specific amount and a consequence for the notary. Options B and C do not mention any specific penalty at all, and Option D only mentions a probation period, which may not necessarily be a consequence for performing notarial acts after a commission has expired. So, option A is the most accurate and appropriate answer.
