Sec. 92.35  Errors in certificate of acknowledgment.

    A notarizing officer having taken an acknowledgment of an instrument 
and made a certificate of that fact cannot afterwards amend or change 
his certificate for the purpose of correcting a mistake. This can be 
done only by the parties reacknowledging the instrument. However, 
typographical errors may be corrected by striking out the erroneous 
characters and inserting the correct ones above. Such changes should be 
initiated by the parties who executed the instrument and by the 
notarizing officer.
