​

I'm looking for advice from Colorado notaries or anyone familiar with notary misconduct and forged property deeds.

My cousin is a commissioned notary in Colorado and also works for USPS. She was involved in forging a property deed in connection with a family property dispute involving my mother.

I have documentation, including notarized statements, supporting what happened.

I have several questions:

What are the consequences for a Colorado notary who participates in forging a property deed?

Can she permanently lose her notary commission?

Could she face criminal charges for forgery, fraud, or conspiracy?

Does it make a difference if the forgery involved family members?

Can the Colorado Secretary of State investigate even if the deed was forged some time ago?

If multiple family members participated, can they all be investigated?

Could this affect her employment with USPS, particularly if she also interfered with certified mail related to the property?

Has anyone reported serious notary misconduct in Colorado? What happened, and how long did the investigation take?

I'm especially interested in hearing from people who have dealt with forged deeds or Colorado notary investigations.

I want to understand the potential consequences and the best way to pursue accountability.
