Ever "forge" spouse's name on DVC documents?

When I sign DHs name to a check etc. I always initial with my initials as well.

Your title has what is known as a "defect". Although it is not a "fatal defect", it could affect you and your husband if you ever divorce. It could also cause problems if you ever decide to sell it, but these problems will be the new buyers, not yours.

As someone else pointed out, there are three parts of forgery:

1. You forge a signature.
2. You pass or attempt to pass the forged signature as genuine.
3. Someone must be harmed by the forgery.

Although you have done 1 & 2, number 3 has not happened.

Yet.

Drubsa is right. I never really thought about this before so I looked it up.

The lowest level of Forgery in New York State is defined as "with intent to defraud, deceive, or injure another, he falsely makes, completes or alters a written instrument."

"Falsely make" and "falsely complete" have there own definitions but they involved doing something without proper authorization.

There is no intent to defraud, deceive, or injure another and Simba's Mom's husband authorized her to sign his name. That means there is no crime. I also doubt there is any title defect.

I have never forged/signed my wife's name and probably never will.

I had thought this post would have died. My posts were clear on my opinion. I never said anyone here was in danger of proscution. I simply said the subject was hazy and didnt think it was appropriate ( Next time I will Mind My Own Business just like I do with everything that has nothing to do with me ). If you "read" my posts I referred to the possibility of a person becoming involved in a situation they might not have without the knowledge of reprocutions that could result in the mishandeling of what someone projects as completely innocent for the way thier life works for them. As I said in my previous post "I ment no anger/slighting to anyone" and I will avoid posts not related to DVC subjects.

Let he who cast the first stone be without sin - I dont cast stones

Hey sometimes people like to continue discussions long after the original poster has left - I don't think you angered or slighted anyone it's just human nature, especially on forums like these.
